What is family mediation?Family mediation is a process which assists separating and divorcing couples to resolve their disputes and negotiate their own agreed decisions in a dignified and fair way, taking account of the needs of all involved, including especially, but not only, where there are children.
The matters to be resolved can include financial and property issues, arrangements for children, moving children to another part of the UK or abroad, communication impasse and other. Step-parents, Grandparents and other family members wanting to resolve a family dispute, may benefit from mediation too.

*MEDIATION INFORMATION AND ASSESSMENT MEETINGS

How long does it take?The number or sessions required depends entirely on the issues that need to be resolved. On average 3-4 sessions are needed for cases involving property and finance, and 1-2 for those involving children.
Divorce litigation, on the other hand, can take anywhere from several months to several years to be resolved. So why not mediate rather than litigate? Get in touch with a competent mediator today. |

How much does it cost?At JR Family Mediation we ensure that our fees are fair, reasonable and transparent. Full information about the charges is available here and if you have any questions, we will be happy to answer them at the initial meeting.
Our rates are significantly lower than solicitors' rates; in addition parties can split the cost of mediation between them rather than pay fees to two separate solicitors. |
What about stress?Separation and divorce can be very distressing to everyone involved. Mediation is not counselling but it addresses the emotional side of conflict too: it facilitates and develops communication between the parties, provides information on other sources of support and establishes safe and impartial arena for all participants, to allow their voices to be heard.
