Family Mediation Week – an opportunity to reflect on other ways to resolve disputes
Family Mediation Week kicks off on the 27th January until 31st January. Parents or couples who have decided to separate or divorce in 2025 are being urged to find out how to avoid courtroom confrontation to settle money and parenting arrangements.
January usually sees a rise in the number of parents or couples deciding to live apart as the various pressures that go hand-in-hand with the Christmas period act as a final straw for relationships with financial and family pressures.
Family Mediation Week is designed to raise awareness of the benefits of family mediation, a process that can help ex-partners agree what works for them, whilst avoiding the court process with all the stress, delay and cost it can bring.
We find parents/couples in this position simply don’t know which way to turn or what they should do.. Their life-changing decision to separate brings with it so many tough questions around finances and arrangements for any children
Family Mediation offers separating couples information about their options as they look to make arrangements for parenting, property and finance.
Family mediation can often be much cheaper and quicker at supporting people through their separation. If it involves children issues the family mediation voucher scheme may also be available which offers £500 towards the cost of mediation for eligible participants.
Family mediation is a process where an independent, professionally-trained mediator helps you work these things out, enabling you to avoid courtroom confrontation. Professional mediators help empower you to create long-term solutions for your particular circumstances, rather than leaving it to a court to make decisions for your family.
