Steve Garven

I am an internationally accredited mediator with over 25 years’ experience of conflict resolution, leadership and management who mediates monetary or non-monetary civil and commercial disputes of any value.

“I am fully committed to assisting parties reach an cost-effective, confidential and acceptable agreement in every mediation I am involved with and, to bringing an end to their dispute”

I truly believe that if we have the right mindset and belief and, we can maintain consistent focus on the interests, rather than the issues of the parties, almost anything can be successfully resolved by mediation. (….it doesn’t matter whether that’s a breakdown of communication on a ship building contract worth £150 million, the relocation of a bus stop or excessive noise from a neighbouring property)

“Parties who negotiate their own settlement agreements feel more empowered and are happier with the outcome than those who, through litigation, have the outcome forced upon them.”

I offer a tailored, bespoke approach to mediation fully supporting the parties with assistance in agreeing date, location and venue booking.

I believe in impartiality, independence, confidentiality and neutrality and providing a high level of personal service to each party.
