WHAT IS FAMILY MEDIATION?
Family Mediation is a voluntary process. It can also be ordered by the Family Court when proceedings have been initiated in that Court. The parties can be represented by their legal advisers in this process.
The mediator’s role is to assist communication between the parties so that there can be open discussions to enable negotiations to take place and hopefully a settlement reached.
The mediator’s role is to facilitate open communication so that:
the issues in dispute can be identified
to enable options to be generated to address those issues and
to enable an agreement to be reached between the parties to resolve those issues.
