A few words of thanks for your role as mediator. It was my first experience of such proceedings and I have to say that your calm dignified manner helped to bring some decorum to a potentially fraught discussion. In particular I appreciated how you introduced the parties and described the process. I felt this was quite disarming and helped to establish a level playing field for both sides.

I sincerely thank you for your time and efforts to resolve the issue in our case yesterday. Truly admire your tenacity and positive attitude to find a solution. It’s very difficult in these times to meet people who have enthusiasm and determination to peacefully resolve things. While I understand that you were doing your job but the underlying passion is something which made the difference. It was my pleasure meeting you and hope we can meet in the future though preferably in better circumstances

Thank you for having done such a fabulous job! At the start, I was not sure if we would have a settlement but thanks to your skilful efforts, we managed to settle the matter in a manner that I believe was acceptable to all the parties. You were the star..

George showed remarkable skills in the mediation I witnessed. A complicated family dispute, which had been festering for about two years, was solved within a few hours. George managed to quickly build a rapport with parties and identify the issues that needed to be resolved. He demonstrated an unconditional commitment. Throughout the process he helped the parties stay focused on what mattered most, and lend critical support in their attempts to find a workable solution.

George displays the perfect level of intuition and quick intelligence to guide the parties towards settlement. He appreciates the need for patience, understanding and impartiality. At the same time he works diligently to ensure the dialogue does not falter in even the most trying of circumstances. I would recommend George to any one looking to resolve a dispute.

Thanks to Mr. Lim's creative methods.. both parties successfully reached a settlement agreement. Our client is very satisfied with Mr. Lim's performance and really appreciated his great effort and experience. We as solicitors are impressed with Mr. Lim's mediation style - not to judge past issues but to lead the parties to think about the future and solve sophisticated disputes.

George’s even and impartial temperament is clearly evident from the start of the mediation. He sets a congenial and facilitative tone for the dialogue by putting parties at ease from the beginning, clearly setting out the ground rules and encouraging parties to express their interests honestly... George is also extremely skilled at stimulating parties to generate creative solutions and explore options that they might have otherwise summarily dismissed. His untiring energy and unrelenting patience in building constructive communication between parties yields much fruit in creating greater mutual understanding between them.

George is an excellent, highly effective mediator. In our mediation he managed to pin-point the real issues and concerns of the parties, and used a powerful combination of out-of-the-box techniques and genuine empathy to achieve a win-win settlement which both parties were entirely satisfied with. Both my clients and I would recommend him unreservedly.

Without your efforts yesterday, parties would certainly not have reached an amicable settlement. My clients are relieved that the litigation is over and more importantly, they can now focus their attention on their business.
