We sought the expertise of Tess to help us with financial mediation and I cannot recommend Tess highly enough. She was welcoming, honest, generous and took the time to explain the process we were going through so that we understood completely which helped put us at ease.
Tess provided valuable insight and it was obvious her only agenda was to help us come to an agreement.
If you have to do mediation, do it with the help of someone wonderful and experienced like Tess.
Tess was easy to work with. She is understanding and works for positive outcomes. A real human being. Thanks Tess.
I was very impressed with Tess from Argyll. In the two hours I met with her, she was able to familiarise herself with the content of our (a small residential community) issues, helped us understand those issues of primary importance and provided a structural framework for moving forward. We were all very satisfied with her work.
Tess helped my ex wife and I sort out our financial settlement. She handled the mediation session well and an agreeable outcome was achieved. I’d recommend Tess to anyone who needs mediation.
Excellent work thanks Tess. One of the most competent and professional services that I have experienced. A big help through some hard times. Well done. Much appreciated.
