Mediation
Family issues are often complex, sensitive and require a careful, considerate approach. Mediation can help resolve matters in a neutral and safe environment, away from the pressures of court, and is extremely cost-effective. Our family mediators help with a range of issues including finances, divorce and matters involving children.
Why mediation should be considered
Following separation, you may find yourself in a position where you disagree with your partner over issues such as finances, property and child arrangements. In these circumstances, mediation can assist you in facilitating discussions to enable you to reach your amicable conclusion.
Our team of trained mediators will help guide you through this voluntary process to ensure that you reach the best possible outcome for you and your family.
How does mediation work?
We will initially arrange a Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting with you and (where appropriate) your partner. If you both decide to proceed with mediation, it is at this stage that the ‘type’ of mediation is agreed, and the joint sessions would commence. Where the outcome of mediation is successful, we will provide you with a record of the decisions reached in a document known as a Memorandum of Understanding. You and your partner will be able to obtain independent legal advice upon the proposals contained within the Memorandum of Understanding should you wish to, prior to a binding agreement being drafted.
Who we work with
Our specialist team of trained mediators work with families, individuals and couples to assist in resolving issues and move forward in a coherent, collected way. We work with other professionals during the process who are also able to offer assistance and guidance, including financial advisors, divorce coaches and family counsellors.
