How to Use the Mediator Search

Enter your search criteria in only one field for a wide search, or enter in more than one field for a more specific search. Searches are not case specific.

If you receive no matches to your search, there no solicitors on the QLS list who meet all the criteria you entered. To widen the search results, it may be necessary to remove one or more of the criteria.

Location

Enter the area where you want to locate a mediator.

If you select 'exact match' in the drop-down list, only locations with that exact spelling will be displayed. If you are not sure of the spelling of the location, try using 'sounds like'. For example entering 'mackhi' in the location field and selecting 'sounds like' in the search type will return solicitors practising in Mackay.

Selecting 'begins with' will return results in locations whose names begin with the criteria you entered. For example, entering 'toow' will return solicitors practising in Toowong and Toowoomba.

Similarly, entering 'gate' in the location field and selecting 'contains' in the search type list will include solicitors practising in Sandgate, Northgate, Margate and Highgate Hill.

For larger cities such as Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast, it is necessary to enter the suburb you require. For example, entering 'Brisbane' will only return solicitors based in the Brisbane CBD and not those in the outer suburbs, and entering 'Gold Coast' will return no results at all.

Surname

If you know the surname of the mediator you are searching for, enter it here. If you select 'exact match' in the drop-down list, only solicitors with that exact spelling will be displayed.

If you are not sure of the spelling of the surname, select one of the other search types from the drop-down list on the left. For example, if you entered 'man' in the surname field:
