Family Mediation is a process by which family members who cannot agree about the arrangements for children, property or finances try to resolve their differences with the assistance of an impartial professional. Family mediation offers a safe environment for difficult discussions to take place with the input of a mediator.
At Zenith Chambers we have a range of trained mediators who can assist in resolving family disputes. All our mediators are practising barristers with considerable experience of family disputes, and some also hold judicial appointments. Within our team we are able to offer mediators with particular expertise in specialist areas such as:
We offer a flexible and competitively priced mediation facility, whether in our mediation suite or at an agreed venue, which can accommodate different models of mediation tailored to the circumstances of the case, including family mediation, co-mediation, civil mediation, shuttle mediation and lawyer assisted mediation structures.
All of our mediators are committed to mediation as a cost effective means of resolving disputes without the damaging process of litigation, and we keep courtroom tactics out of the mediation room. Our focus in mediation is on listening, facilitating and enabling participants to reach their own decisions in safe environment with a safe pair of hands.
