The Mediator - Susan Kaye

How could it help my family?   Family mediation helps all sorts of people: married and unmarried parents, grandparents, step-parents and young people can all take part. It can help you sort out arrangements with your former partner and or other family members.

Family mediators have a great deal of experience of the issues surrounding separation and divorce and how relationships and families can be impacted upon during such stressful times.

If you think it could be helpful to have a member of your family or a friend attend a mediation session with you then as long as both you and your ex are in agreement it is perfectly acceptable to include them in a mediation session. As a general rule however, it is only former partners who attend mediation.
