How Our Family Mediation Service Works
Step 2
The mediator will provide you with information and guide you through the mediation process, so you can decide if you would like to proceed. You then book in a MIAM before your joint sessions.
Step 3
We will schedule your joint sessions at a convenient time for you and your ex-partner, and help you to reach a solution and written agreement.
Using our service is really simple and provides a safe space to minimise the stress and anxiety that our clients are feeling when they are going through a difficult time in their life.
Included in your mediation for free are:
- Summaries between joint mediation sessions (where applicable)
- A Preparation Guide to help you get ready for your first mediation session
- An highly qualified team of mediators and administrators, who will support you at every step of the way
- Tailored information specific to your current situation, which will be provided to you in the MIAM.
We Offer Same Day MIAM Appointments
We also provide same day MIAM appointments. A MIAM is an appointment that you must attend alone before coming together with your ex-partner for joint mediation sessions.
Our same day appointments can be really helpful if you need a Mediation Information Assessment Meeting quickly. We can book you on the same day you call, which is great if you have a tight schedule due to work, other commitments, urgent issues you want to discuss, or just because you want to get started in the mediation process and ultimately the rest of your life.
Our same day MIAM appointments fill up quickly so please call us to book your MIAM now. We do have a limited number available each day.
We are here to ensure you can access our family mediation service as and when you need to.

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.”
Tim A

Frequently Asked Questions
You are probably bursting with questions about mediation right now and how it can help you. Here are just a few of the questions we mainly get asked by our clients to give you more of an insight into our mediation process.
I don’t have children. Can I still use mediation?
Yes, you can attend mediation if you don’t have children. We have many clients who use mediation to sort out finances when going through divorce, to find out their options when their relationship is reaching the end or to have an open and frank discussion with their ex-partner about their future.
Do I need to attend mediation when I just need the MIAM Certificate?
You would need to attend a mediation information assessment meeting in order to obtain your MIAM Certificate either for your Form A or C100 application. There are only a small number of cases where individuals do not have to attend a MIAM before making an application to the court.
Once you have attended a MIAM you can decide whether you want us to provide the MIAM Certificate.
