He has been ranked by Doyle’s Guide as a Leading Mediator in NSW every year since 2018.

In addition to his AMDRAS status, Anthony is accredited by Resolution Institute as an Advanced Mediator and certified by International Mediation Institute and the Singapore International Mediation Institute. Whether presiding over high-stakes commercial disputes and other disputes or complex sports-related matters, Anthony’s elevation to Leading Mediator status reaffirms his commitment to facilitating fair, efficient, and enduring resolutions.
