FAMILY MEDIATION PROCESS
There are generally four stages in the Family Mediation Process
STAGE 1 - REFERRAL
The Family Mediation process starts when we receive a referral from you, the other party or from your solicitors. A referral can be made directly by completing our referral form, by contacting us by telephone on 07947 017465 or by email at rachel@insightlegalsupport.co.uk.

BENEFITS OF FAMILY MEDIATION
Mediation has many benefits, providing better outcomes for all parties.
-
Mediation helps you work together to address your difficulties which can reduce the stress and acrimony which is often experienced when a relationship breaks down. It can also build a good foundation to help you work together and reach solutions in the future.
-
Mediation can resolve your issues much quicker than long drawn out court proceedings.
-
Mediation can be significantly cheaper than going through the courts, which can cost thousands of pounds if you are legally represented.
-
Within mediation, you are part of the decision making process, unlike at court where the Judge makes a decision on your behalf.
-
Mediation can improve the communication between you and the other party and help iron out misunderstandings between you.
