🌿 Mediation: A Positive Alternative to Court 🌿 Court can be long and costly, but mediation offers an impartial, collaborative way to resolve disputes. Our accredited mediators, who are also experienced family law solicitors, guide both parties to decisions that suit their needs. Mediation can happen at any stage, helping with single issues or all aspects of separation. Even if it doesn’t resolve everything, it often narrows disputes for smoother next steps.
