How mediation works for families?

Mediation can help you if you are going through a partnership or family breakdown or dispute. Family mediation can help by taking full control and responsibility for you in reaching an agreement without the need to involve lawyers and judges.

Results show that in most cases the parties are more open and candid during a mediation process and this usually results in a settlement being made that is acceptable to both sides.

Can Family Mediation Really Help?

ADR

Alternative dispute resolution approved by the Ministry of Justice.
It is worth considering that the courts should always be the last resort in family disputes and should only be used when other attempts at a settlement have failed. The majority of mediations are successful & avoid the need to involve court action. As mediation is a voluntary process; you, the other mediating party, or the mediator, can terminate the process at any time if anyone considers that the process is unlikely to reach a satisfactory resolution.
