WHY DO I NEED A MIAMS?
An initial mediation meeting, also known as an MIAM, must first be concluded. These meetings are often known as intake meetings.
Even though you normally attend these events alone, you may occasionally bring a friend. In this case, the mediator will still wish to speak with each of you individually.
The MIAM has two responsibilities:
You have the opportunity to communicate to the mediator the situation, the issues, your desired resolution, and any concerns you may have.
In addition, it allows the mediator to explain the mediation Bridport process in detail to you. Next, the mediator will determine whether or not mediation is appropriate for your case. In addition, at this stage you have the option of trying mediation.
HOW LONG DOES MEDIATION TAKE?
This could change depending on what’s going on. Many people can come to an agreement on a single issue in just one joint mediation session.
This could be about Christmas plans for the kids, a trip abroad, or a change in the amount of spousal support.
Most clients have an average of three 90-minute meetings with a mediator to talk about parenting or money problems.
