Collaborative Law

Collaborative Law is a genuine and viable alternative to what can be lengthy and stressful proceedings. The is to achieve a settlement through negotiation and agreement in a calm atmosphere and without the need to attend Court should an agreement fail through the usual negotiation process. The aim of Collaborative Law is to reach an amicable outcome through face to face meetings with you and your partner in the presence of your legal team.

Mediation

Mediation is another way of resolving disputes with your partner, spouse, civil partner outside of Court proceedings. The process involves you being referred to a trained mediator who is approved by us and who makes sure that you can discuss matters with them in the presence of your ex-partner or in another room.

This type of Mediation is often called Shuttle Mediation. The key aim is to secure agreement and settlement through open negotiation and discussion, which is free from tension and outside pressure. For those who are keen to secure an agreement, whether regarding the children or financial or other matters that stem from your separation, then Mediation can be an effective method of resolving issues.
