I use mediation regularly and I find it is a very effective means of resolving complex disputes. It is not right for every case, but when I have used it, my experiences have always been positive.

I'm not sure it is fair to dismiss it is a another layer of expense. If it is done at the right time, it is much cheaper than litigating (£10k issue fees!). You also get a better service, whereas dealing with the Courts is becoming an increasingly frustrating and arbitrary experience. I sympathise with the Court staff given their reduced resources and increased workload.
