Mediation and collaborative law
Often, separating couples find it difficult to talk to each other effectively and to resolve issues in a constructive way.
In these situations, either mediation, where the parties will explore solutions together with a trained mediator, or collaborative law, which involves a series of open meetings between both clients and collaboratively trained lawyers, can be very effective. This is particularly the case where children are concerned.
These tools can, in the right cases, result in more constructive and child-centred outcomes, with clients retaining more control over the process and benefiting from reduced legal costs.
