Description:

We provide mediation for couples whose relationships have broken down or are breaking down. When relationships have broken down and families are living apart or intend to live apart, we can help sort out matters such as where the children will live, how they will continue contact with both parents, grandparents etc, and financial matters.

We offer legally aided mediation to those who are eligible. Family Mediation is the alternative to using the courts for sorting out separation and divorce issues. It is less costly and less adversarial.

Our family mediators are fully qualified and accredited by the Family Mediation Council. They all have vast experience of dealing with people in exactly the situation that you find yourself in.

Our mediators have diverse backgrounds with some coming from legal or financial backgrounds and others from social services.

Family mediators are always completely impartial and will work with you both to agree on arrangements for your children, property and your finances.
