Welcome to the Homepage of Prachi Mediation. It's founder, Prathamesh D Popat, is a mediator in Mumbai. Mediation, in India, is part of the cultural heritage. However, it has now been formally introduced as yet another ADR mechanism for resolution of disputes which have seen their way into the courts of law. The Code of Civil Procedure has been amended for the said purpose and the courts are in the process of setting up and strengthening the requisite infrastructure.
Prathamesh D Popat is trained and accredited as a Mediator by LEADR (Australia) and is an IMI Certified Mediator. He continuously updates his understanding of the dispute resolution field as also his skills, by periodically participating at ADR conferences and attending training workshops conducted by institutions across the globe, some having trainers and experienced participants coming from different regions/jurisdictions/countries, bringing with them a variety of experiences and insights, which facilitates a quick comparison of the diversity in the practice of ADR mechanisms.
Back home, Prathamesh practices as a Mediator, Advisor and Trainer in Basic & Advanced Mediation Workshops. Alongside his private Mediation practice, being a member of the Bombay High Court's Panel of Mediators, he has also mediates several Court-Annexed Mediations, referred to him by different courts.
Prathamesh, besides being on several Mediators' Panels, is also the Co-Chairman of the Mediation Committee of the Indian Merchants' Chamber, a premier Chamber of Commerce based in Mumbai.
