Clinical solution

I have always been a keen supporter of mediation in the area of clinical negligence litigation and in this I have been strongly supported by the Queen's Bench Masters assigned to this work.I have welcomed the initiatives of the clinical disputes forum to bring together the various interested parties.

They use our library for their meetings and have made great progress in preparing a guide to mediation in this field.There is genuine support now to pursue this aim, and I am sure it offers a far better means for resolving clinical disputes than is possible with litigation.Robert Turner, senior master, Royal Courts of Justice, London
