About Patsi Michalson

I am an experienced and culturally diverse mediator, lawyer and conflict resolution expert.

 

My interest lies in helping others to unlock creative solutions to difficult problems. I use my professional skills and life experience to facilitate difficult conversations and influence productive and constructive dialogue to end conflict and achieve lasting outcomes.

 

My core mediation focus is on health law, including medical negligence disputes, historical sexual abuse claims, personal injury claims, insurance, aged care and commercial art disputes.
