Round Table Meetings/Joint Conferences (Children, Matrimonial, Employment & Civil Matters)
No.18 can accommodate round table meetings between lawyers with a view to resolving Children, Matrimonial, Employment and Civil disputes between parties. No18 offers expert Counsel at all levels to assist with this process and will provide either rooms or remote technology to facilitate meetings. Chambers can offer meeting rooms at which all parties to the litigation may discuss their case in privacy and comfort, away from the courtroom environment, and then provide a further room where all parties can meet and negotiate together
The advantages of using Round table meetings/joint conferences
- Flexibility.
- They can happen at any stage during the court process.
- There is very little delay in waiting for a date.
- It can deal with all or any aspects of the dispute which the parties wish.
- Clear guidance can be given as to suitable arrangements and what order is likely to be made if the matter proceeds in a court arena.
If budgets are tight other options can be offered to reduce costs. No 18 Chambers can offer a scheme where parties wishing to achieve a negotiated settlement can obtain a joint written advice or meet with a barrister at an early stage in conference to identify a fair order. The instruction can be limited to an indication on one key issue.
