Family Mediation Is…

Transition Through Separation and Divorce
A professional mediator can help to reduce conflict and create positive future pathways for your family.
Alternative Dispute Resolution
Mediation can help you avoid expensive, time consuming and unpredictable court proceedings.


“Peace is not the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope with it”
~ Mahatma Gandhi
The Benefits of Mediation Are…
SAVING TIME AND MONEY
You may be able to avoid court proceedings which are very expensive and can involve long delays.
Creative Solutions
You have the ability to design agreements which are flexible and benefit your individual and family needs.
CONTROLLING THE OUTCOME
Court judgments offer no guarantees that your outcome will be what you are hoping for. With mediation the future is much more in your control.
IMPROVED COMMUNICATION
Your process of mediation can help you develop communication and understanding which can lead to long-term agreement.
IMPARTIAL PROFESSIONALISM
Your mediator is ‘omni-partial’, striving for agreement that is acceptable to all parties. The goal is always win-win.
PRIVACY AND CONFIDENTIALITY
Mediation protects your privacy as it remains confidential with very few exceptions. Court proceedings can be very public.
Benefits of Mediation make it a superior choice for resolving conflicts.
Alternatives to Mediation include ARBITRATION or LITIGATION which are both expensive, lengthy and have unpredictable outcomes.
