    Family Mediation/Collaboration

    February 10, 2010

    When family relationships break down, everyone suffers. You may feel vulnerable and out of control. Expert legal help is needed to resolve the complex problems that arise in relation to children, finances and pensions. Important decisions need to be made which affect you and your family for years to come.

    Many people would prefer to resolve family problems round a table with their partner, instead of using the Court process. If so, you should consider Family Mediation or Collaboration.

    Family Mediation provides a safe and confidential environment where you and your partner aim to find solutions to any issues with the assistance of a trained Mediator. Animosity is kept to a minimum. Costs can be saved.

    If you prefer to have the support of a solicitor in meetings, then Family Collaboration could be the answer. You and your partner, together with collaborative lawyers, sit round a table to find solutions to your problems.

    Why choose Family Mediation/Collaboration?

    • To keep animosity to a minimum.
    • To help you continue to parent your children together.
    • To enable you to stay in control of the process and the solution.
    • To provide an environment in which you and your partner can discuss issues in a confidential setting.
    • Tailor made solutions to meet the needs of your family.
