What is Family Mediation?
Family mediation is a constructive process designed to help you and your ex-partner communicate effectively and reach agreements without the stress and expense of going to court.
Typical issues we support families with include:
- Child arrangements and parenting plans
- Division of finances and property
- Agreements around shared responsibilities
Our Herefordshire mediators create an environment where both sides are heard and supported, guiding you towards solutions that are fair and practical for everyone involved.

How Our Mediation Service Works
We’ve made the process as simple as possible:
Step 1
Book your free consultation and pre-MIAM call. This allows us to understand your situation and confirm mediation is suitable.
Step 2
Schedule your MIAM (Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting). Our Herefordshire team will explore the key issues and prepare for your joint sessions.
Step 3
Attend joint sessions with your ex-partner. With a mediator’s guidance, you’ll talk through your challenges and work towards a written agreement.
What You’ll Receive With Our Service
Choosing our Herefordshire mediation service means you’ll also benefit from:
- Written summaries of joint sessions (where useful)
- A practical “Mediation Preparation Guide” to help you feel ready
- A dedicated case manager for consistent support
Written agreements based on your joint decisions
Same Day MIAM Appointments
If you need a MIAM certificate quickly, we often offer same-day appointments. In some cases, we can combine your pre-assessment and MIAM into a single session.
As appointments book up quickly, we recommend reserving your slot early.

What Our Clients Say
“When it came to the day of mediation, I felt understood, confident and as if the outcome would be positive. Without their help in preparing me for the mediation, I don’t feel the outcome would have been as positive as it was.”
