Going through a family breakdown can be an extremely stressful time and can often be overwhelming for those involved.
Mediation is a voluntary process allowing a couple to discuss issues involved in the breakdown of a relationship and, with the help of a mediator, agree those issues between themselves without court proceedings. The mediator is impartial; their role is to assist those involved to have constructive and amicable discussions and help them reach an agreement.
Our accredited and experienced family mediator can help guide separating couples through their options and support them in discussing and resolving the issues that result from their separation. Typically, those issues relate to the arrangements for their children or the division of their financial assets.

We have modern, comfortable offices in Leeds, Sheffield, York, Derby and Birmingham where we can arrange for your mediation sessions to take place and we can offer online mediation so that you can take part from the comfort of your own home.
We have strong relationships with other professionals, such as financial advisors, accountants and family therapists. We can bring them into the mediation sessions if needed to help you understand the implications of the options for financial settlements or to help demystify some of the complexities of pensions.

The family mediation voucher scheme is a time-limited scheme, set up by the government in response to COVID-19 to support recovery in the family court and to encourage more people to consider mediation as a means of resolving their disputes, where appropriate.
