Mediation in Divorce

Family Mediation helps those involved in family breakdown to communicate better with one another and reach their own decisions about all or some of the issues arising from separation or divorce.

Splitting Up? Separated? Confused?

Has your relationship broken down? Are you uncertain about what to do next? Feeling confused or angry? Worried about your children?

Finding it hard to talk to your (former) partner about matters you need to decide together e.g. children, finances, your home, your futures?

Would It help to talk to a professional?

Mediators help couples and families sort out what to do next. They provide help, support and information on the practical things in a way that is sensitive to your feelings, and to the needs of all family members, especially children.
