WHY WORK WITH LOUISE? 

85% of strategic mediations settle. Only 15% of adversarial ones do.

Here's what's really happening:

You walk into mediations overthinking, terrified of looking incompetent, and exhausted from the pressure of not getting it wrong.

You're applying legal skills and providing solid position papers, as well as legal arguments. But you're stuck in technician mode when the room needs leadership skills.

The pattern is destroying even the most talented lawyers:

→ Overthinking or reacting to every word (instead of confidently navigating people and resolving the conflict)

→ Burning out from trying to do it all perfectly without appearing weak. 

→ Staying in expert legal mode (instead of using the skills that influence the room)

→ Operating from "What will they think of me?" (instead of "I know what I bring to the table")

While you're trapped in this cycle, other lawyers are using force, control, and titles to steamroll the room.

And you use equal force and control in return, or you capitulate. 

Here's what nobody tells you:

The lawyers who consistently achieve aren't always the smartest in the room.

They've learned to navigate from trust instead of fear-driven perfectionism.

They know their unique value beyond their legal expertise.

They've moved from "I can't make a mistake" to "I'll try new approaches and adapt."

My background: 13 years at the Bar (ex-litigation), Mediator (Harvard) +  Leadership Coach + Consultant

I've watched expert lawyers sabotage themselves not because they lack legal skills, but because they're operating from overthinking and fear, rather than from a position of trusted leadership.

The data proves it: Strategic mediations settle 85% of cases while fear-driven approaches create the deadlocks that destroy deals.

Do you want a mediator who:

→ Understands that your overthinking comes from caring about outcomes, and you want client referrals?

→ Knows how to handle lawyers who use force, control, and intimidation tactics?

→ Recognises your legal expertise while leading you toward trusted leadership in the room?

→ Helps you move from "What will they think of me?" to "I know what I bring to the table"?
