In mediation, getting to contract in respect of a monetary settlement is seldom very easy. Great agreements are based upon sound judgment as well as useful realities. You need to be pragmatic, willing to jeopardize, understanding of the various other individual's perspective, and above all, if kids are involved, their needs have to be critical. Because discussion in mediation is 'without bias' we can not get to a lawfully binding agreement. What we aim to achieve as a last end result file is a 'Memorandum of Understanding' which sets out proposals for settlement in really specific terms and the underlying reasoning on which these are based. For preparing this record, which may additionally describe children's living setups, we charge ₤ 50 (₤ 25 each).
