Shelley-Anne Salisbury

In this podcast, the host, Shelley-Anne Salisbury, an accredited Mediator, will be chatting with dispute resolution professionals from all over the world and from a variety of disciplines. She’ll be discussing mediation from their unique perspectives and experiences and asking them about their different approaches. Like Shelley-Anne, they believe mediation to be a powerful tool in resolving disputes and can avoid escalating legal costs and the unpredictability of court cases - not to mention the emotional rollercoaster of litigation which can often stretch out over many years. This takes a huge toll on the parties involved and their loved ones. Shelley-Anne knows from personal experience - both as a lawyer and as a litigant and this experience has left her with no doubt, litigation should be avoided at all costs . Shelley-Anne and her guests will show, whilst mediation can be challenging, it's highly effective and to be able to bring a dispute to an end, allowing people to simply move on, is so rewarding.
