Forensic Mediation & Reparation

 

Adrian can provide occasional external consultancy in this difficult and challenging field and can undertake sensitive and challenging situations with the utmost of discretion. 

 

His work has been reported in The Independent by Simon Denison: 'It was like a scene from a gangland movie.  Two brothers, bitter enemies and each backed by a handful of supporters, had come face to face in a public bar in Kettering.  It was their first meeting since an incident three months earlier when the older man was viciously beaten up by his brother.  But another man was present, who had arranged the meeting, and who was determined to have the matter settled peaceably.  Adrian Wright had come with the approval of the local police force.  Taking the brothers aside he sat them down and encouraged them to get their grievances off their chests.  Before long 'A' apologised for the assault and then 'B' apologised for any part he had played in developing the quarrel.  'B' was happy to receive the apology and let the matter rest.  His brother, he says, is a changed person. "Once he apologised it was all right.  The way I see it you shouldn't get your own brother done.  I's calmed down a lot, and we're now quite friendly", he says'
