Mediation Sessions
Mediation sessions usually last 1 1/2 hours each. There are likely to be between 3 and 5 sessions arranged between you and the mediator.
In mediation the decisions are made by you. The mediator’s responsibility is to ensure each of you are able to speak freely in coming to decisions that you both accept.
In financial mediation you are normally asked to make full disclosure of all your financial facts, assets, liabilities and incomes before working out settlement proposals.
In mediation about your children you are of course asked to place your children’s needs for the best possible upbringing above all other considerations.
The outcome of mediation is written documents produced by the mediator setting out your financial circumstances and decisions you have come to. In reaching these decisions you may wish to seek advice from a family solicitor or specialist.
Proposals from mediation are not legally binding until approved by a court. Your solicitor can help you with this.
