Why family mediation

Family mediation can help you resolve disputes arising from a family breakdown, separation, or divorce. By working together I can help you to reduce conflict, enabling you to make decisions and build agreements for you and your family’s future.

Advance family mediation service is informal and confidential helping you make arrangements concerning your children or other family members, and enabling you to take decisions about your finances and your home.  You decide what you want to discuss and remain in control of decisions made and agreements reached.

What we do:

At Advance Family Mediation you will receive a personal service from your mediator from your first contact  to help  you throughout the process.

Whether you have been referred to mediation by a solicitor, or by the court, or if you simply want to find out how mediation can help you, you will be given  the information you need  to help you choose the course of action that is best for you.

You will be offered child inclusive mediation to help your children talk about what’s going on, if you feel this would be helpful, and I  will talk  about this when we meet.

Your mediator is accredited to sign your court form if you are considering making a court application for a family matter, confirming that you have attended a mediation information and assessment meeting (MIAM).

You can arrange to meet either on a fee paying basis, or if you are eligible for legal aid through a partnership arrangement Advance Family Mediation holds with the National Family Mediation Service. If you are fee paying you can access the MOJ  Voucher Scheme  –  the  application will be made for a voucher on your behalf to cover the costs of up to £500 for family mediation about child arrangements.
