Family Dispute Mediation
Avoid Expensive Court Battles
What is Family Dispute Mediation?
Mediation is an effective tool for resolving disputes and disagreements in family matters. Any family issue can be dealt with in Mediation – Divorce, Legal Separation, Access and Custody to/of Children, Guardianship, Maintenance, Living Arrangements, Inheritance and other related family law matters.
There can be interim, medium term and long term Mediation Settlement agreements.
People wishing to get divorced or legally separated have found that mediation is a less stressful way to achieve a separated status.
Mediation allows the parties to decide their own arrangements rather than leaving it with a Judge to make decisions regarding the family.
Mediation allows parties to work together to an agreed end point, creating less emotional and financial tension and maintaining a higher degree of flexibility over the day to day workings of their family dynamics.
The cost of using mediation for a divorce or legal separation is on average 1/10 of the cost of the traditional Solicitor and Barrister route.
Solicitors are now obligated to advise clients to first attend mediation to reach agreement(s) and only if mediation does not work then enter the Court process.
Mediation provides an impartial and private environment to reach a workable practical agreement avoiding the adversarial Court process.
We believe that Mediation is important in resolving relationship issues that affect the well being of the family.

Why contacting a Mediator at an earlier stage is important
Disputes within families can be damaging. If left unresolved sometimes disputes or disagreements which could have been resolved in mediation can develop into lifelong conflict.
Consulting with a Mediator can and does change the course of a conflict.
The participation of a neutral third party can bring a fresh perspective, new dynamic and a person to whom each party can speak freely about their position.
