DIVORCE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENTS
We assist couples to reach agreements on divorce-related matters including property division, spousal maintenance, parental responsibilities, and contact arrangements.
Why Divorce Mediation?
Mediation offers a faster, less stressful, and more private way to resolve disputes compared to court. Unlike litigation, where a judge makes decisions, mediation allows you to stay in control and create solutions that work for your unique situation.
SECTION 22 AGREEMENTS
We assist parents with Section 22 agreements relating to parental responsibilities and rights, allowing structured agreements without immediate court involvement.
Why Section 22 through Meiation?
Creating a Section 22 Agreement through mediation allows parents to reach a fair and workable plan in a cooperative, respectful setting. A mediator helps both parents communicate clearly, focus on the child’s best interests, and resolve disagreements without conflict escalating to court.
PARENTING PLANS
Why parenting plans?
We help parents develop clear and workable parenting plans covering care, contact, schooling, holidays, and decision-making responsibilities.
CHILD CUSTODY
Child custody determines who the child will live with and how major decisions about their upbringing—such as education, healthcare, and religion—will be made. Custody can be joint (shared between both parents) or sole (one parent has primary responsibility).
Why Child Custody through Mediation?
Handling child custody through mediation allows parents to reach fair and practical arrangements in a calm, cooperative, and child-focused environment. Unlike court, where a judge makes decisions, mediation gives parents control over the outcomes that affect their children’s lives.
CHILD MAINTENANCE
We facilitate fair and realistic child maintenance agreements, including monthly contributions, education, medical aid, and special expenses.
Why child maintenane through mediation?
Mediating child maintenance allows parents to create fair and practical financial arrangements in a cooperative, respectful, and confidential setting. Instead of leaving the decision to a court, mediation gives parents control over the outcome, ensuring it works for their family’s specific situation.
