Oliver Knura

As a commercial mediator, I specialise in resolving complex B2B disputes, particularly those arising from contractual relationships and financial claims. My background in the EPC sector and in contract and claim management allows me to quickly understand commercial drivers, industry dynamics, and the practical constraints parties face. I combine this commercial insight with a structured, interest-based negotiation approach, helping parties move beyond positional arguments towards solutions that reflect their underlying objectives and future plans.

My mediation style is focused, efficient, and goal-oriented. I work with a clear process, typically combining joint sessions with confidential one-on-one meetings to explore interests, test positions and arguments, and support effective negotiation strategies. I am comfortable working alongside legal teams and in complex, high-value disputes, while ensuring that the parties themselves remain in control of the outcome. Parties value my direct approach, my ability to challenge constructively, and my focus on achieving outcomes that are workable in practice and aligned with the parties’ forward-looking objectives.
