You may have seen that this week is National Mediation Week. The purpose is to raise awareness of the role and benefits of mediation, especially in family break ups. We have belonged to the specialist professional body for family lawyers, Resolution, since starting the firm over 16 years ago, and remain committed to their code of practice.
Our experienced Mediator Sharon Davey-Holpin can help, and more detail is given here on our website, see the mediation section above. Mediation can be a very helpful way to progress matters, but it does not have to be an either/or with legal advice. Ideally you should work through mediation and get legal advice, to ensure your interests are then properly reflected into appropriate binding court orders.
If you are interested in using Sharon as a Mediator, or engaging us as your lawyers, to get expert advice promoting sensible and pragmatic discussions, do give us a call.
