Geoffrey Brunton

Comments from a client officer [to internal legal department] included: "I must compliment you on your choice of Geoffrey, who ... proved to be immensely effective. I also recalibrated my view of the effectiveness of mediation. This was a tough, fast-moving process which yielded good results

Mr Brunton was very helpful in the days leading up to the mediation and extremely well prepared for it on the day in question. This was a complex dispute involving a fall-out between family members, and Mr Brunton struck exactly the right note - sympathetic yet persuasive - when discussing matters further with our client. He was extremely thorough and managed to promote a compromise that should also lead to a reconciliation between the family members, which he had identified as being most important to our client.

Geoffrey was a fantastic mediator. He grasped the core issues quickly and skilfully guided us to a resolution, which ultimately allowed us to avoid substantial legal fees.

I just wanted to say thank you for your assistance mediating yesterday. Your calm and considered approach was instrumental in the parties coming to an agreement. I would have no hesitation instructing you in the future.

Mr Brunton was an excellent mediator and had clearly done his homework on the case. Would highly recommend.
