Welcome  to The Mediation Room, leaders in the application of technology to dispute resolution.

We enable disputes to be resolved at less cost, in less time and with less damage to underlying relationships than by litigation.

Our pioneering software is used by courts, government bodies, leading companies, business associations, law and business schools and mediation companies worldwide.

Here you will learn about mediation, quick_box_for_tmedr_homepage.jpgand other alternative ways to resolve disputes, whether such are with suppliers, customers, employees, business partners, co-directors, regulatory and public bodies or the public at large.

We can arrange for a mediator or arbitrator to discuss your own case and set up tailored systems for organisations handling disputes.

Our services can be applied in-person, or partly/wholly online using our own bespoke sofware.

If you are a mediator or arbitrator, or an organisation offering such services, we can help you offer your skills to cases otherwise not capable of being dealt with in-person, e.g. where the parties are in different countries or where the value of the dispute does not justify the cost of in-person resolution. For those cases you do deal with in-person, we can improve the prospects of success by enabling preliminary in-depth preparation, clarification and issue narrowing  to be undertaken online.
