Jon Lang is an independent commercial mediator.  In May 2005, after almost twenty years in private practice, the last six as a partner in the disputes group of White & Case in London, Jon set up his own mediation practice.

Jon has acted regularly as a mediator for a number of years and is recommended by both the Chambers and Partners and Legal 500 guides to the legal profession.  He has mediated a wide variety of commercial and intellectual property matters both in the UK and overseas.

Jon is CEDR accredited and accepts appointments from a wide variety of sources - direct from parties or their lawyers or trade mark agents, as well as through organisations such as the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO), the Sports Dispute Resolution Panel, CEDR and the ADR Group.

Jon has acted as an 'expert' in mediation and regularly teaches on mediation training programmes.  He is a panel member of the Court of Appeal mediation scheme, Vice Chair of the Mediation Committee of the International Bar Association and a member of CPR's Panel of Distinguished Neutrals.  Jon is the author of the book, 'A Practical Guide to Mediation in Intellectual Property, Technology & Related Disputes' published by Sweet & Maxwell.
