Your local mediation services provider.
Kent Mediation Service helps individuals and local businesses resolve conflicts and disputes through professional mediation.
We provide a calm, confidential and impartial process in which everyone involved has the opportunity to explain their concerns, understand the issues and explore a practical way forward.
Our service is designed for people who want to resolve a disagreement constructively, without immediately turning to lengthy or costly formal proceedings.


A trusted local collaboration.
Kent Mediation Service is an initiative of Kent Law School, delivered in collaboration with Ashford Mediation Service.
The partnership brings together the University’s academic expertise and commitment to education with the practical experience, professional systems and established mediator network of Ashford Mediation Service.
This means that clients receive a professionally managed service supported by experienced mediators and clear standards of practice.
Who we help.
We work with individuals, businesses, employers and other organisations across Kent.
You might contact us about:
-
a disagreement between individuals;
-
a contractual or payment dispute;
-
a problem involving a customer, supplier or business partner;
-
a workplace disagreement;
-
a breakdown in communication;
-
a dispute that is becoming difficult to manage;
-
an issue where the people involved would prefer to reach their own agreement.
You do not need to have started legal proceedings to use mediation. In many cases, seeking help at an earlier stage can prevent a disagreement from becoming more difficult, expensive or damaging.
