FLEXIBILITY
We work remotely and can schedule appointments and mediations outside of business hours and on weekends to accommodate your busy lifestyle.
CONSISTENCY
You will work with the same fully qualified family law mediator from start to finish.
We work together with you to produce workable agreements. We help you view disputes from different perspectives to ensure understanding between parties and longevity of any agreement reached. If you desire, we are also happy to work collaboratively with your legal representative.

OUR MEDIATION PROCESS:
4 EASY STEPS
1.

Contact us to discuss our mediation services (15 minute free phone consultation) or book your pre-mediation intake session. We'll send you an information pack and an agreement to mediate form before your intake session.
2.

We complete your pre-mediation intake session with you, at a time that suits you. This session will be approximately one hour and can proceed via telephone or online, depending on your preference. After this session, we invite the other party to participate in the mediation process.
If they refuse to participate or do not respond after reasonable attempts by us to contact them, we can give you a Section 60i Certificate (parenting matters only)
3.

Once the other party accepts our invitation, we complete a pre-mediation intake session with them. If assessed as suitable to proceed, we liase with you and the other party to book in your mediation at a time and date that suits everyone involved.
If assessed as not appropriate to proceed to mediation, we may issue a Section 60i Certificate (parenting matters only)
