‘I recently concluded a clinical negligence case with Tim Wallis as our mediator. The parties started the day poles apart, but after a long day we achieved a mutually acceptable out of court settlement. My client, solicitor and I were greatly impressed by Tim’s painstaking preparation, ease at exploring complex issues, fairness to the parties, and refusal to give up. My client, who was both physically and psychologically damaged, was able to participate in the settlement far more actively with his daughter, than would have been possible in other forms of ADR, making the process cathartic. Tim kept them fully appraised at each twist and turn, and was always patient and kind.’ Mediation Client Nov 2023
