Mediation On Finances

Mediation On Finances

Separation throws up financial challenges as well as parenting challenges. Mediation helps you collect and understand all your financial information before looking at options for settlement. You test all the options against your objectives and look at them from the point of view of practicality now and in the future. You seek information from outside experts where necessary, for example legal advisers, financial advisers, pension experts, mortgage brokers, etc.

It is very important that you protect your legitimate self-interest. For that reason we strongly recommend that you seek legal advice during the mediation process, which you then bring back to the mediation meeting.

Mediation helps people make well-informed and practical decisions which will work. At the end of the process the mediator will prepare a spreadsheet of your finances and a schedule of your proposals for settlement for you to take to your solicitor.
