Law firms ranked by client reviews

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) covers processes that help parties resolve disputes without full court proceedings, such as mediation, conciliation, and arbitration, used across business and civil matters in England and Wales. A solicitor in this area helps draft ADR clauses, select and appoint appropriate mediators or arbitrators, conduct preliminary negotiations, and draft settlement agreements or enforce awards. They also advise on when ADR is suitable, how to prepare for sessions, and how ADR outcomes interact with ongoing or future litigation.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

In ADR matters, the solicitor drafts and negotiates ADR clauses, coordinates with mediators or arbitrators, oversees disclosure and evidence sharing for mediation, prepares position statements, and drafts settlement agreements or consent orders. They manage process timing, ensure procedural fairness, and advise on the enforceability of any agreement or arbitration award, including enforcement strategies if needed. The work involves interacting with counterparties, tribunals or arbitral bodies, and the potential transition to court action if ADR fails.

Jelena Korobkova

Tagged solicitor Jelena Korobkova

I choose this firm from its awards for being family friendly and whilst Jelena professionally and robustly had my back during the negotiations she also actively listened to my personal circumstances and considered the human element of the finance agreement/ divorce that is there when kids are involved. Unfortunately my ex chose a firm that put 'tanks on the lawn' with super-slow response times whereas Edward Cooke were considered and responsive (within 24/48 hours) which reduced my stress levels greatly. As an example of their commitment to their client when I was put in a corner they called me back from home late on a Friday due to the urgency. I cannot speak more highly of Jelena and the Edward Cooke team and would thoroughly recommend them.

When another law firm didn't want to know or take on my case Robert cranston listened and guided me through the process with a great deal of patience. He explained things to me in a way I could understand, and this resulted in the best outcome for me.

Victoria Skelton

Tagged solicitor Victoria Skelton

Victoria has supported me with my case for the past 6–7 months, and I would recommend her highly. She always made time for thorough updates and thoughtful discussions, which made a stressful process much easier to navigate. Her depth of knowledge is clear, and she consistently put in extra effort to research additional options and strategies for my case.
