Over 90% of people who try the court path 

end up settling outside of court. 

The best investment you will make is a good mediator.

Mediation is a mandatory requirement of the Family Court of Australia. Proceedings cannot start unless you have a section 60i Certificate issued by a Registered Family Mediation Practitioner. Once you do get to court, it is highly likely you will end up settling, except you will have spent a lot of money on legal fees. Having said that, some cases do go all the way through to a place where a judge will make a decision for you. Mediation allows you to make your own decisions.

Bring your childs voice to the decision making, without the stress on your child 

• Involvement of Counsellor
  • A trained psychologist or counsellor speaks with the child (usually aged 5 and up) in a safe and supportive way.
  • This person is independent and focuses on understanding how the child is experiencing the family separation.

• Feedback to Parents (Not Direct Participation):
  • The child is not present during the mediation.
  • The consultant gives neutral, developmentally appropriate feedback to the parents (via the mediator) about the child’s emotional and developmental needs, without placing blame.

• Child’s Voice, Not a Choice:
  • Children are not asked to choose between parents.
  • The aim is to understand the child’s experiences and preferences, helping parents make decisions that are more attuned to their child’s wellbeing.

• Used in Family Dispute Resolution (FDR):
  • This process may be part of Family Dispute Resolution, which is often required before going to the Family Court.
  • FDR services like Relationships Australia and Interrelate often offer child-informed mediation.

• Voluntary and Confidential:
  • Parents must consent to this process.
  • The child’s views are shared in a way that respects their privacy and emotional safety.
