Mediation

When there is a family law dispute, the emphasis is on trying to have those involved reach an agreement in a friendly way without having to go to court. Going to court is time consuming and can be expensive financially and, more importantly, emotionally.

The law states that before having access to the court system disputing parties must go down certian 'pathways'. The way to reach a solution starts firstly by inviting the other party to try to negotiate a way to reach an amicable agreement about the matter in dispute. There are informal and formal ways to try to reach an agreement.

We can provide additional, more specialised advice on all of the above when you contact our offices.
