During this difficult and uncertain period, we would like to ask; can we help you, your team or your organisation?
Our team are just one email, phone or skype call away. As expert conflict resolution practitioners, they are trained to listen, confidentially and without judgement in order to help you find a sustainable way forward. While the normal way of doing things is disrupted, we are still running mediations online and by telephone.  See our Online and Telephone Mediation Webpage here and continue to help train, coach and support clients;  its business as usual here at CEDR.

Regardless of the size or complexity of the issue you are facing, please, if you need support or guidance, feel free to give us a call on +44 (0)20 7536 6000 or email adr@cedr.com.

In order to provide the high quality of services we always have to our commercial, consumer and training clients, in the short-term, it has become necessary for some of our staff to go on furlough leave. Please go to the Latest News section on our Insights page here for further information.

We all thought the Mediator was fantastic! from the outset. She worked hard with all the parties. This was a 20-hour long mediation and you could see how she was fully committed from the very beginning until the end. In-House Counsel
I found all aspects of the course to be immensely valuable however getting to meet a number of different CEDR mediators was helpful in understanding the different styles each adopted and the personal touch that each of us can bring to the mediation process. Ronnie Hayward , Divisons Director, International Bar Association
It is fortunate that CEDR has created a unit to undertake its charitable Foundation activities, to conduct this type of initiative as a service to the public, and CEDR is to be congratulated on a job well done. RT. Hon Lord Woolf of Barnes , Former Lord Chief Justice for England & Wales
I commend the CEDR Foundation Guide on Public Inquiries not only to those appointed to run or work in public inquiries, but dare I suggest it, to the Ministers and their advisers when consider whether or how to commission a Public Inquiry. Sir Robert Francis QC , Chair of The Mid-Staffordshire NHS Foundation Trust Public Inquiry
I have done several ADR training courses over my career; this was by far the best. Pitched at an appropriate level; extremely well prepared and structured; both academic and realistic. It was truly excellent. Senior Lawyer , European Organisation
