Reso for Lawyers, Mediators and Adjudicators

    Reso gives clients a fast, legally grounded assessment early in a dispute - so the matters that reach you arrive clearer, more organised, and ready to act on.

    An earlier intervention, not a replacement

    Reso isn't a substitute for mediation, legal counsel, or formal adjudication. It's an earlier, easily accessible step - whether your client arrives having already used it, or you run it yourself ahead of a session.

    Clients describe their issue in plain language, upload their evidence and receive a structured assessment in minutes, including likely outcomes and where their position is strong or weak.

    For straightforward matters, that clarity is often enough. For serious ones, it means the parties who reach you have already understood their position, organised their evidence, and decided to proceed with confidence. That way, the groundwork is done before it reaches you. What's left is the work only you can do.

    Where Reso sits

    Reso is used before a lawyer or formal proceedings are involved, so the disputes that reach you are clearer and better prepared.

    Phase 1
    Dispute emerges
    A potential dispute is identified. No formal process has started, and it may be unclear whether the issue should be escalated.
    Phase 2
    First assessment (Reso)
    A party seeks a first view of their position in Reso. They receive analysis grounded in NZ legislation and case law.
    Phase 3
    Legal counsel
    If the issue is identified as requiring the expertise of a lawyer or mediator, clients can engage a lawyer and provide their Reso Referral Package to them.
    Phase 4
    Formal proceedings
    If the matter still can't be settled, it moves to alternative dispute resolution or legal proceedings, with the preparation already done.

    When a matter escalates, it arrives ready

    Where a dispute can't be settled directly, Reso prepares a Referral Package that brings together the facts, the evidence, the initial research and a merits assessment. Your client arrives prepared, and your first meeting starts from an organised file rather than a pile of documents.
