A practical way to talk before matters escalate
Mediation gives separating families a structured space to discuss difficult issues without immediately moving into court proceedings.
How mediation helps
Family mediation keeps the focus on workable next steps.
When a relationship ends, there are often practical decisions to make about children, housing, money, communication and future arrangements. Mediation can help both people discuss those issues in a calmer, more structured way.
The mediator is impartial. They do not take sides, impose an outcome or act as a solicitor for either person. Their role is to manage the process fairly and help both people consider practical options.
What we help with
Support for children, finances and separation.
Family mediation can help you discuss several issues at the same time, especially where parenting, money and housing arrangements overlap.
Children arrangements
Discuss where children live, time with each parent, handovers, holidays and communication.
Finances and property
Explore property, income, savings, pensions, debts and practical financial proposals.
Divorce and separation
Use mediation to work through practical next steps after relationship breakdown.
MIAM and next steps
Do you need a MIAM in Haywards Heath?
A Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting helps you understand whether mediation is suitable. It is also required before many family court applications unless an exemption applies.
If mediation cannot proceed or is not suitable, the mediator can explain what court form may be needed and what the next step could be.
