Feedback received:
"We felt we must thank you personally for the utmost attention and help which you provided and we are sure that your influence and charisma was a great part in securing a settlement to bring to an end what has been a most difficult time and we are extremely grateful".
"A calm and confident presence.prepared thoroughly.clearly had the confidence and respect of all the parties.it was a great help to have Martin".
"On the day we knew very quickly that we had the right Mediator".
"In a society that is plunged in turmoil and disagreement it provided great relief and comfort to witness your skills and diplomacy in focusing straight on and resolving the problem. Your professional services provide a panacea to conflict".
"I was amazed at what you were able to achieve".
"Your commitment and unsparing work to find a solution acceptable to both was most impressive".
"We were filled with admiration for your skill and resourcefulness, human understanding and basically your brilliant handling of what appeared a very thorny situation for us"
"Many, many thanks to Martin Plowman!!"
"We would like to thank you for negotiating an efficient out of court settlement...[your fee] was a small sum of money to pay for such a flawless service from initial contact right through to completion"
"...we were made to feel relaxed and at ease whilst talking with you, which is great considering we were a little daunted by the whole situation"
"I found the mediation to be a very positive experience"
"We are astonished at the miracle you worked....[your fee] is a small reward for your skill and patience - and extra hours!"
"It was heartening that we were able to resolve the dispute so successfully. I know that the process, and particularly the way in which you conducted the mediation, made the whole experience much less painful for my lay client than would otherwise have been the case."
" Yours is an excellent service and the first bill I have ever been happy to pay."
"We still talk about the mediation and your diplomacy and humor in dealing with a very difficult and emotional situation."
"Your cool and quiet manner poured oil on much troubled water, which had simmered for some 18 months, and at times nearly boiled over. The sum of money involved in our claim must appear trivial compared to some disputes you mush have handled in the past, yet the proceedings were handled almost oblivious to the actual value but rather more importantly to the fairness to the parties involved. We sincerely hope (this is meant in the nicest possible way) that we don't have to meet again, but should we find ourselves in a similar position in the future we would have no hesitation in acquiring your very professional services."
"We can't leave you without expressing our thanks and admiration once again for the manner in which you have conducted this case. We have learned a lot about the law, but we have also learned something about how to conduct disputes, and work towards peaceful resolution. We have been on your website and seen the accolades from satisfied customers. You probably don't need any more, but we would like to put our names at the bottom and say, "All of the above are true."
"I am convinced that without your skills as a mediator this unfortunate dispute would still be running on unresolved."
"Let me tender thanks for your help and great patience on Monday; without them the settlement (which very pleasantly surprised me) certainly would not have been achieved."
"Thank you for the settlement expertly achieved. It was an impressive alternative to the Full Monty and I will certainly recommend you and Mediation-1st."
"I have seen a good number of mediators in action over the last 10 years or so and thought you demonstrated great skill and patience and was very impressed by your handling of this dispute."
