Philip Punwar
Mediator
Professional Overview
I am an experienced legal professional with a keen ear, an eye for detail and a well developed sense of humour.
In facilitating the resolution of commercial disputes I call upon 35 years international practice as a Barrister based in London and as an AM Law 50 Global Disputes Partner based in Dubai.
I have always valued the opportunity to work with clients and colleagues from across the world and to support younger legal practitioners find their professional feet.
Experience & Mediation Approach
My professional style is grounded in patience, empathy, and respect for the individuals concerned. I recognize that parties often enter discussions uncertain about their true needs, and I work carefully to help them clarify their priorities without pressure. I appreciate the role played by each party's representative and aim to ensure their contributions are acknowledged and integrated into the process. In this way, I aim to create opportunities for candid dialogue and constructive settlement proposals.
