In this episode, 39 Essex Chambers' barristers Katie Scott and Eliza Sharron discuss why mediation has traditionally been under used in Court of Protection and public law disputes, and they examine the types of disputes which lend themselves to mediation within these fields.

Katie and Eliza discuss the benefits of mediating such disputes, not only in relation to saving time and cost, but also in terms of preserving relationships in a context where parties often have to keep working together in the long term.
