About Kerry…
I help businesses and individuals resolve conflict - the kind that disrupts relationships, consumes management time and prevents everyone involved from moving forward.
I am a CEDR-accredited mediator, employment lawyer, and the founder of Wavelength Mediation.
My mediation practice is shaped by my unique combination of legal expertise, commercial understanding and practical problem solving.
With a career spanning more than 20 years and developed within leading City law firms, I understand how disputes unfold and what is genuinely at stake - legally, commercially and personally.
My approach is calm, empathetic, and solutions-focused, which helps parties navigate difficult issues and move forward with confidence.
A lawyer's perspective
I bring to mediation the perspective of an employment lawyer, with a career spanning more than 20 years and developed within leading City law firms.
I advised employers, businesses and senior leaders on complex and sensitive workplace matters - from discrimination and bullying & harassment to senior executive disputes, grievances and settlement negotiations.
I understand how disputes unfold, the legal framework, and what is genuinely at stake - legally, commercially and personally.
As a mediator, parties and their advisers can be confident I will grasp the issues quickly, handle sensitive matters appropriately, and keep the process focused.
Recent mediation examples…

Successfully mediating a three-party employment dispute involving complex and sensitive discrimination claims scheduled for a lengthy Employment Tribunal hearing.
My approach
Calm, impartial and practical.
I create a confidential environment where parties can speak candidly, address difficult issues and make informed decisions for themselves.
Every dispute is different, so the process is tailored to the circumstances and the people involved — in format, timing and structure. Mediation can take place online or in person.
Beyond my practice, I volunteer as a career and interview coach with Smart Works Scotland, a charity supporting unemployed women back into work - a continuing reminder of the difference the right conversation, at the right time, can make.
Start with a chat
Every dispute is different, and mediation is not always the answer - but I believe a conversation is a good place to start.
If you are dealing with a workplace, employment or commercial matter, I would be happy to arrange a confidential, no-obligation discussion to explore if mediation is the right fit.
