  • Costs for a €200,000 claim in Court run to over €50,000 compared to mediation at a fraction of the cost
  • She said “Anything that can be done to prevent people spending time away from their business at the moment needs to be taken seriously”
    60% and 70% of cases coming before the commercial court could be resolved successfully through mediation. Mediation is cheaper, quicker, and provided more satisfactory resolutions because the outcomes were agreed by the parties themselves rather than being imposed by a judge
