Our Background and Approach
We are specialist family lawyers, mediators and registered family dispute resolution practitioners.
We offer practical, solution-focussed guidance for people going through divorce and separation.
Family law mediation and family dispute resolution offers parties with an opportunity to resolve every aspect of their separation in a non-adversarial, professionally supported environment.
Our approach to conducting family law mediations is evaluative. In other words, we actively apply our legal expertise to give mediation clients with a neutral evaluation of the legal issues underpinning their dispute and our views as to how a Court or arbitrator might determine the issue.
While we take a neutral and independent position in negotiations and dispute, we will express a view as to whether we think that a position taken, or proposal made, has merit or not, encouraging all parties to engage in a bona fide way.
We do not just sit on the sidelines and convey proposals between the parties back and forth.
We engage with the issues and offer tailored legal solutions that are practical and workable.
