Mediation For The Creative Industries
Disputes in the creative sector are rarely black & white. They involve ideas and words like ‘vision’, ‘expectations’ and ‘ambition’.
Two sides started out with a shared goal and now they’ve ended up as villains in each other’s story.
A mediator with decades of experience in this field can help you untangle that complexity quickly and fairly.
In less than a day you can reach an agreement and you get back to what you do best.
