A mediation service is available which is an independent third party who will mediate between parties to try to resolve the issues between them in a conciliatory manner.
Mediation can be an important and valuable tool in family law, particularly in sensitive cases which involve children.
There are a number of mediation services that are available in this area and throughout the country. We can advise you on a referral for mediation as the first step to resolving issues. We at Hewitts are committed to mediation as a way of trying to resolve matters without the need for Court proceedings. We can advise you throughout the mediation process and also on Court proceedings, if mediation is unsuccessful in resolving your problems.
If you are in receipt of public funding mediation service is available free of charge. We at Hewitts can advise you on your means and what the likely cost of mediation would be where appropriate
