Often, he is willing to travel at short notice in order to reduce the parties’ own costs.

He has chaired or sat on tribunals deciding disputes under the laws of England, Singapore, Hong Kong, Switzerland, New York and Nigeria and has conducted hearings in most of those countries and also in Dubai, Paris and Canada.

Stuart is also an accredited ADRGroup mediator. He is a Principal Mediator for the Singapore Mediation Centre and has lectured extensively on the subject of mediation and alternative dispute resolution.
