“I had been being threatened with legal action by a large energy company for over a year. I didn’t want to involve lawyers and I definitely didn’t want the case to end up in the courts.  I reached out to Jeremy to seek his help on how best to negotiate with them. Jeremy came up with a practical plan and walked me through all its stages and discussed probable outcomes and various scenarios, which gave me a lot of comfort. He was professional, very supportive and confident in how we should speak and correspond with the company. The company ended up withdrawing their claim and dropping the case. If it wasn’t for Jeremy I would most likely end up in a stressful court case and with huge legal bills. With him I got the outcome I wanted in a surprisingly short time and with little cost.”

“During my career as a banker, I have learned that conflict is a reality. I have seen too many of those conflicts result in painful litigation.

One of those conflicts involved a client’s family dispute – which could well have ended up in the courts. Jeremy worked tirelessly with the various family members to help them focus on potential solutions and to shift their mind set away from blame and the past. Jeremy had a clear vision of the future for them and that created sufficient momentum for the family to attend a mediation meeting. A thirteen hour negotiation resulted in an agreement that brought closure. Not only was litigation avoided but also the family could start to repair their relationships.

I was very impressed with Jeremy. So I will be recommending Prefix to clients as a great way of resolving disputes in the future.”

“I found myself involved in a multi-million pound dispute between two other parties, and for years my legal team were not able to extricate me from it, instead running up significant litigation bills.

Jeremy completely understood my goals, showed me an alternative path, coached me both on how to make the most of a mediation process and how to negotiate with the other side, and made a significant difference to the outcome on the day.

I hope to never find myself in a similar situation again, but if I do then Jeremy will be the first person I call.”

“Our business was facing difficult and potentially damaging litigation.
We embarked on mediation and  I benefited enormously from Jeremy’s experience and invaluable support throughout the process. He helped us prepare thoroughly so we had the best chance of a successful outcome.
Ultimately, we found a settlement that brought an end to the litigation, minimised disruption and avoided serious consequences for the company. Jeremy’s involvement was key to this.”

“My wife was not confident to talk to me about money. With Kate, she could talk and develop ideas and it made her feel so much more confident and on an equal footing. This brought huge relief to us both and a sense that we could get there.”

“I can’t thank Kate enough and I will always be grateful for her wisdom and guidance through a very hard time. She calmly and practically helped us step by step and stopped me from feeling overwhelmed.”
