Family & Matrimonial

Matrimonial and related issues including child residence/contact arrangements and property distribution and sharing.

Mediation can significantly assist with family disputes ranging from contact and residence disputes through to divorce and financial resolutions. Mediation focuses primarily upon the needs and interests of the parties with the goal of reaching a settlement or solution acceptable to all.

Mediation is cost effective and settlements or solutions can often be reached more quickly than by resorting to court proceedings. The discussions remain private and compliance is more likely when the parties reach an arrangement with which they feel comfortable. This assists in maintaining an avenue for open dialogue and effective relationships at a time when parties are finding it difficult to communicate or agree.
