Mediation that’s efficient, credible, and trusted by counsel.

Proven conflict resolution, grounded in litigation experience.

Meet Susannah - a legally credible mediator who moves things forward.

If you’re looking for a mediator with legal credibility, deep conflict expertise, and an unwavering commitment to efficient resolution—welcome.

I’m Susannah Margison, a former litigation lawyer and founder of a conflict resolution firm. I understand the pressures of litigation: complex dynamics, competing priorities, and tight timelines.

My mediation practice is designed to support resolution—without unnecessary delay, drama, or overstepping.

With expertise in:

  • Personal injury

  • Professional negligence

  • Employment disputes

  • Sexual assault

You’ll get a mediator who understands the process, the leverage points, and the need to reach resolution efficiently.

Trial-Tested Legal Insight: With nearly 15 years of legal experience—including trial and arbitration work—I understand the realities of litigation and what’s at stake.

Dedicated Conflict Expertise: While many mediators dabble, I’ve spent the last three years working exclusively in conflict resolution—across complex, high-stakes matters.

Neutral, Not Naive: I don’t just keep the peace—I move things forward. My approach blends strategic neutrality with sharp issue-spotting and emotional fluency.

Roster-Rate Aligned (for now): For litigated matters, I offer virtual mediation at roster rates in Ontario—keeping the process simple and accessible, without compromising quality.
