Mediation Expertise

Principal Attorney Hugh Raichlin is an internationally accredited mediator through the London School of Mediation and mediates matrimonial, workplace and commercial disputes. With more than four decades in practice, he is frequently instructed to mediate complex matters where parties wish to avoid the cost, delay and uncertainty of protracted litigation. Our firm also conducts arbitrations, offering a structured, private alternative to conventional court proceedings.

In addition to litigation and dispute resolution, Hugh regularly presents training workshops for corporates, managing agents and property brokers, explaining the legal process in clear, practical language and focusing on landlord–tenant law, commission disputes, restraint of trade and other recurring commercial issues.
