Why should I use mediation?

Family mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution that helps couples to reach agreements about their children and their finances. It is a way of resolving disputes out of court, with the help of a mediator. You and your partner meet together with the mediator for mediation sessions which generally last between 1-2 hours. How many sessions you need depends upon you and the nature of your dispute. The negotiations which take place in family mediation are privileged and confidential. This means that they cannot be used against you in court proceedings. You are not bound by any agreement reached in mediation until you have taken legal advice on it and the agreement has been drawn up as a court order.
