Rosemary Jackson is in full-time practice as a Mediator and Conciliator and has embraced virtual mediation since 2020. This follows a successful practice at the Construction Bar from 1983 until 2014. Her mediation practice covers construction, engineering, power, water, solar and process plants and general commercial disputes.
Rosemary’s approach is highly commercial. Since 2001, she has mediated and co-mediated disputes up to £2bn and between up to 10 parties. Many complex or multi-party mediations benefit from Rosemary’s ability to case-manage the dispute and participate in a structured mediation process over several months.
Her background in construction litigation, combined with good preparation, enables her to identify the issues incisively. This enables her to reality-test the parties’ cases and assist them in evaluating their strengths and weaknesses. Rosemary’s approach is adaptable, and she can deploy a blend of facilitation and evaluation to suit the particular mediation. Where invited, and if appropriate, she is willing to assist the parties by making evaluations, recommendations or post-mediation assessments.
She is consistently listed as one of the world’s leading construction mediators in Who’s Who Legal: Construction, and as a Global Elite Thought Leader in Who’s Who Legal: Mediation 2020. She is featured as a Leading Silk for construction mediations by Legal 500, 2020 and listed in Band 1 (Mediation) by Chambers and Partners UK and UK Bar Guides 2020, having been ranked as a mediator since 2010. Rosemary is recognised in the Legal 500 Hall of Fame for mediators.
