Family Mediator Brisbane

Randal Binnie

Family Dispute Resolution and mediation by a Nationally Accredited Mediator and registered Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner
Family Mediator Brisbane - Partner at Family Lawyers & Mediation Services

 

The mediation process in a nutshell:

A party (or both parties) make contact with a mediator;
The mediator will make initial enquiries to ensure that mediation is appropriate;
The mediatior will undertake confidential intake sessions with each of the parties individually;
The mediator will then arrange the date and time for the first mediation session;
The parties will be provided with a mediation agreement to read and sign;
The mediation will take place in one or more sessions as decided by the parties and mediator;
In childrens matters the parties will sign a parenting plan/agreement upon agreement being reached;
In property matters a document "Heads of Agreement" or "Terms of Settlement" will be signed (with the parties to have their lawyers formalise the agreement later);
If there is no agreement in a childrens mediation (family dispute resolution) the mediator (family dispute resolution practitioner) may issue a certificate under Section 60I of the Family Law Act;
Remember the entire process is confidential and what is discussed cannot be disclosed or relied on in Court.
