"Lorraine Smith has been presenting workshops on mediation to students enrolled in our full time Practical legal Training Program for 12 years. Lorraine is a very experienced mediator and skillful presenter....Because of the depth of her experience Lorraine is able to give incisive introduction to mediation which is well praised  by students.  I have no hesitation in recommending Lorraine as a mediator and workshop presenter" . Mark McCauley Senior Lecturer Head F/T Sydney Campus Course College of Law Sydney.

"I have used Lorraine for Farm Debt Mediations over the past few years .  We have found her to be fair and reasonable and look for resolutions with achievable outcomes ...she looks at the issues and mediates from that perspective" David Wilson Manager First Mortgage Investments Burleigh Heads Queensaland.

"Dear Lorraine.....Just to say hank you for your contribution to our Retreat last Friday.  Everyone agreed that you brought just the right degree of balance to keeping us in order and letting us voice our opinions...the day would not have been anything like as positive without your presence and facilitation and we are very grateful for the way  you steered us towards such a successful outcome and collegial atmosphere...." Professor Jim Davis Head School of Theatre, Film and Dance The University of New South Wales.

"Lorraine , I found the "Skills Update" course yesterday very thought provoking and a very practical revision of our Community Justice Mediation Practice.  You handled a "demanding" group with skill and consideration.  I took away lots of useful ideas....a great day and well run...I enjoyed it." Mediator Community Justice Centre NSW.

"Dear Lorraine...A million thanks for all your help with our building application...without you would have presented a very different case and would probably not have achieved such success....you were always available ...we were most appreciative of your guidance".  Gai and Paul
