Additional Information
"Michael's skills as a mediator enabled the ill-will that was evident at the outset to be diffused during the course of the day.
Needless to say, Michael showed a clear understanding of the facts and issues and had clearly doen a condsiderable amount of preparatory work. This was important given the complex IP and contractual issue in dispute and enabled him not only to build rapport with but also the confidence of both sides.
The result was that an extremely unfortunate dispute was brought to an end"
