Mediation
To start off book a free mediation consultation so you can assess us without obligation as we discuss your situation. There is no pressure. You can book a consultation now, later or not at all, or ask your lawyer to contact us. One of our helpful mediators will shortly contact you to discuss your circumstances. We discuss your options and explain how we can assist you. If you choose to go ahead, your mediator will make contact with the other party and ask them if they want to participate. If they agree we will book in separate intakes for each of you.
Intakes are held with each party separately so we can get the information we need, and understand what desired outcome each party wants.
Mediation is your chance to discuss property and children's matters in a safe, supportive environment. Since every situation is different we offer different mediation techniques for different situations.
Sometimes, the desired outcome is the same for both parties, but due to a breakdown in communication they are unaware of this until the mediation. Sometimes there are many overlaps and differences can be addressed by a few simple compromises. Sometimes there are large differences in the desired outcome and more interventions by the mediator are needed. In any of these circumstances we facilitate communication between the parties to allow for good decision making.
Sometimes mediation can take place with both parties and the mediator face to face in the same room. Sometimes it is more appropriate that the parties are at different locations (shuttle mediation). Sometimes we use child consultants to interview the children and report back to the mediator and parties (child inclusive mediation).
Written agreements are often required, where the mediator records the decisions the parties made at mediation, whether that be a settlement document for property or a parenting plan for children.
We serve the whole of Australia because distance is no barrier.
