The mediator doesn’t have to be local to you, since mediation can be conducted remotely. It’s more important to find someone who is the right fit for you than someone who just happens to be local.
Mediators offer either face to face or online mediation. If the online model is to be used then we are able to mediate with couples anywhere in the country and also internationally.
International mediation has proved particularly popular. Whereas in the past where one person has been abroad, it has been difficult to negotiate a settlement either through a court process or in occasional mediation, this can now be arranged very quickly and there are few barriers to prevent real progress from being made.
The mediator will liaise with you to arrange the joint meetings at a time that is convenient for everyone. Normally the time and date for each session will be agreed well in advance so that everyone can fully prepare ahead of the meeting and know what to expect.
