I would like to welcome you to the Family Mediation blog. As some of you might be aware, a number of changes have been made recently to the way in which people can access the family law courts to try and settle disputes about family issues such as the living arrangements for children and financial settlements following the breakdown in a relationship.
Within this context, it is likely that many more separating couples, whether married or not, will at some point be asked to consider the use of family mediation as an alternative to the court system. This blog has been set up to provide a place for information about family mediation to be found by anyone who wants to know more about it, whilst also giving a forum for issues relating to mediation to be discussed.
Whether you have only recently come across family mediation or whether you are someone who has a great deal of experience with family mediation, I hope that this blog will offer a vehicle for you to share your thoughts and to read the thoughts of others. This may be useful on both an individual level and more generally to society as a whole as it is my belief that family mediation can offer a great alternative to resolving family disputes for many people and anything that raises the profile of family mediation and adds to the available information about family mediation is likely to be beneficial at these different levels.
It is important to stress that the contents of this blog should not be seen as an attempt to advise anyone how they should proceed with their own personal matters and the blog is not a substitute for seeking the advice or information that a legal advisor, mediator or other professional can offer.
