Mediation Services
Family mediation is the process of a couple meeting with a specially trained mediator when a marriage or relationship breaks down to try and resolve disputes over their children or finances.
Mediators help couples to reach decisions on their own terms, rather than having these decisions made by the court.
Why Harrison Clark?
The benefit of our mediators is that they are independent, impartial and focused on seeking resolutions, as well as being legally qualified. The process is confidential, voluntary and can be very cost-effective. Usually there is just one mediator present – when there are two it is called co-mediation.
The new Family Proceedings Rules 2010 which came into force in April 2011 encourages lawyers to recommend mediation at every step to resolve disputes, with court proceedings being a last resort. At Harrison Clark we have trained mediators who are able to help and assist you.
