Mediation Style

Andrew very much likes to look at the interests of the parties rather than positional bargaining. He is a strong believer in repairing relationships where possible and try to take a humanist approach. However, he also understands the motives and needs that drive disputes so he can frame everything in a realistic and meaningful manner. Sometimes solutions can be creative. It is rare that disputes are just about money.
