Mediation helps separating couples resolve issues without court proceedings. It can cover children, finances and property, and is often quicker and less adversarial than other approaches.
Our mediators are also experienced family lawyers. They guide discussions sensitively, helping both parties feel heard while working towards practical, balanced outcomes.
Mediation allows you to set the pace, priorities and agenda. This flexibility can make it easier to focus on the issues that matter most to you and your family.
