Socials

Away from the court arena, 4PB barristers are experts in all aspects of non-court dispute resolution, including mediation, private FDRs, early neutral evaluation and arbitration.

Our members commitment to modern and novel ways of resolving disputes is evident in their commitment to innovation: 4PB is the birthplace of the award-winning The Divorce Surgery, set up by Samantha Woodham and Harry Gates and the first organisation to enable separating couples to receive advice from one lawyer (now known as the “One Couple One Lawyer” approach). In addition, Rachel Chisholm is one of the founding members of The Mediation Space, a psychotherapeutically informed mediation service based in London. It was created to offer a novel and less attritional approach to resolving family problems.

Our new, state-of-the-art premises in St Paul’s means we are able to facilitate multi-day mediations, private FDRs, early neutral evaluations and arbitrations.

Our Practice Management team is renowned for its excellent standards of service, whilst remaining friendly and approachable. For more specific information about how we can help in your particular case, including fees, please contact the practice managers on 0207 427 5200.
