Is Family Mediation right for you….?
Many separating couples would like to be able to come to an agreement in relation to their children or financial affairs. They may not, however, be able to discuss the issues constructively between themselves. Mediation, creates the safe neutral space with highly skilled mediators to help you reach an agreement.
The aim of the service is to help couples avoid nasty, expensive and protracted courtroom battles. Instead, the lawyer mediator sits down with both, discusses the likely outcome of the case if it did go to court, and helps them to reach formal agreement.
The service also offers help with pre-nuptial agreements, grandparents’ rights, cohabitation agreements and child contact disputes.
Helen Thewlis, Head of Family at Ramsdens comments: “Family mediation is a voluntary process – you choose to attend because you want to deal with the unresolved issues between you and your former partner…..in a non-adversarial way and our Family Law Mediation service is complemented by the experience and expertise of our team.
The length of the mediation process is at your own pace but on average three to five sessions are required which potentially means that agreements can be reached within six weeks and is a cost effective way to resolve difficulties.”
