Theo's Testimonials

I used Theo as mediator in a recent case. Despite only having four hours in which to broker a deal, he managed it. I was very impressed by his tenacity in the face of two parties who both threatened to walk away. I would recommend Theo for his strategic, commercial thinking and his determination to get a result for all parties involved.

Simon Hale

Barrister

I instructed Theo on a 1/2 day Mediation. Theo's mediation approach was excellent; indeed, he went above and beyond to facilitate a settlement.

James Freemantle

Ambrose Applebe Solicitors

As an observer, I attended a mediation with Theo, who was first class, highly personable, hands-on, pragmatic and energetic, with a great sense of humour. His rapport building was superb. He also took time out to discuss the case and tactics with me, which was great.
