Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting
The Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting is with Lisa Broddle where you can provide details of the issues that you wish to resolve. We will explain the Mediation Process and review with you, your options on the process that best suits you and your former Partner. This meeting is also in preparation for proceeding with Lisa Broddle as a Mediator.
This is a fixed fee meeting, please see A Guide to Mediation.
The meeting will last for about an hour and there is no report letter.
A Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting is available to you and your former Partner in separate meetings.
If Mediation is not for you, another process can be used. We can provide you and your solicitor with written confirmation that you have considered Mediation, as required by the court.

Mediation
If you go ahead with Lisa Broddle as your Mediator, Lisa will be managing the discussions and the Mediation Process for you and your former Partner. As a Mediator, Lisa can assist you in setting Goals, discussing arrangements for your Children, exchanging Financial Information, finding Solutions for you and your family.
Lisa can provide you with information, generate and test ideas, help you and your former Partner come to an understanding which can then be made into a legally binding order or agreement after independent legal advice from your own Solicitors. Once Mediation starts, the costs of the Mediation are shared equally by both Partners or as agreed between you.
We recommend you both take independent legal advice with your own separate Solicitors throughout Mediation to assist you in reviewing the information, considering solutions, receiving legal advice and to make a binding agreement or Court Order following the Memorandum of Understanding and open statement of Financial Information reached in Mediation.
It is important to obtain legal and mediation information at an early stage, to consider the best way to proceed and to plan all aspects of your future.
