About

Dispute Resolution Victoria is a boutique professional dispute resolution practice handling all civil and commercial disputes.

We are dedicated to fair, neutral and cost-effective dispute resolution - providing all parties with the very best opportunity to resolve their disputes in a protected  and confidential environment.

​

We listen carefully and help parties to build agreed, fair and  lasting outcomes. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice to nor against any disputing parties as such.

Our NMAS accredited mediation services can be delivered at an agreed venue, at your location or online.

Let us help you to resolve your disputes and avoid the costs, delay and uncertainty inherent in Court litigation.
