Addressing Early-Stage Business Disputes​

 

Helping You Communicate Clearly When It Matters Most

 

Disputes can start with a single conversation, invoice, or email — and if not handled carefully, they can quickly escalate and strain important relationships.I work with sole traders and small business owners to help manage early-stage disputes with clients, suppliers, or collaborators — before they become costly, stressful, or damaging to your reputation.

How I Can Help You

​

Drafting Professional, Constructive Correspondence 

When a situation is sensitive, every word counts. I help you write clear, respectful messages that express your position, invite resolution, and reduce the risk of conflict.

​

Preparing for Difficult Conversations 

Whether it’s a phone call, meeting, or negotiation, I support you in planning what to say — and how to say it — so you feel confident, calm, and focused on a productive outcome.

​

Keeping Communication on Track 

I work with you to manage tone, defuse tension, and guide the conversation away from blame and towards solutions — helping preserve valuable business relationships wherever possible.

​

Practical, On-Call Support 

Think of me as a sounding board and communication partner when you need it most — responsive, discreet, and committed to helping you move forward professionally.

​

Mediation 

There may come a point where mediation becomes the most appropriate next step.
