If mediation is unsuitable or you choose not to mediate, you can obtain a court certificate (a requirement for initiating court proceedings, confirming attendance of a MIAM).

You have the option to participate in personalised pre mediation coaching sessions, designed to prepare you for mediation. These sessions have proven to enhance outcomes, help you contemplate your path forward, address any emotional matters, and equip you with effective negotiation skills. Our mediators are neutral third party and part of the mediation council so you can be assured of a fair and cost effective mediation services.

3. Mediation Sessions

Our mediators are fully accredited by the Family Mediation Council. They will expertly guide you and family members through the mediation process. Sessions typically last 1.5 hours and can be conducted face-to-face, separately (via shuttle mediation), or online. The timing and number of sessions will be customized to meet your individual needs.

4. Conclusion of Family Mediation Worksop

Upon conclusion of the family mediation services, we can document your decisions and create summaries of the proposals you have agreed upon. These summaries can then be transformed into legally binding arrangements by your legal advisors. We also provide after-care counselling, and you always have the option to return to mediation at any point in the future.

5. Child-Inclusive Mediation Service

In certain cases, our specially trained mediators can directly consult with children involved and other parties involved, providing a safe and neutral environment for them to express their thoughts and preferences. This enables you to consider their wishes in your decision-making process.

General information about Mediation, Please click the links below to find out more info:

Family’s are deeply affected by divorce or separation, especially when there are children in the family. Often these painful situations can be helped with the supportof a mediator who will hold a  Mediation Information Assessment Meeting or MIAM. A MIAM can guide communication and set the tone for the goals of mediation.

When attending a court proceeding on the matter, the family will need to present an FM1 (Family Mediation 1 form) which confirms that a MIAM has been held.

As of April 2014, significant changes were made to the judicial system regarding separation and divorces, particularly where children were involved. These changes ensure that the welfare of the children is paramount, with minimal impact on the children and as little negativity as possible. One of the major changes was a requirement for a mediation session or MIAM to be attended before any court proceedings to do with financial or custody matters (hence the need for a FM1 to be produced).

If the split is acrimonious and both parties find it difficult to be in the same room, as would happen with face to face mediation, it is possible to ask for shuttle mediation.

Shuttle sessions happen when the two parties are seated in separate rooms either virtually or physically and the mediator shuttles between the two, discussing issues and offering solutions.

Shuttle mediation is often a good solution with distance between the parties allowing for rational and reasoned thinking.

MIAMS Brent Mediators can also help with will disputes: resolving issues between and coming to an acceptable compromise to the conflict that arises as a result of separation.
