Our law firm offers family mediation services where you can find a way to reach an agreement and maintain harmony in your family.

What is mediation?

Mediation – is the process of resolving conflicts with the help of a neutral third-party mediator known as a mediator. The main goal of mediation is to help the parties to the conflict independently find mutually beneficial solutions and reach mutually acceptable agreements.

The mediation process is different from the legal process. It involves the active participation of the parties in the resolution of the conflict, where the mediator acts as an objective mediator, promoting effective communication and joint search for solutions.

Compared to traditional court procedures, mediation is a more flexible and empathetic approach to dispute resolution.

Key aspects of mediation include confidentiality, voluntary participation by the parties, an emphasis on mutual interests, and a focus on building the future rather than focusing on the past.

Mediation is used in a variety of contexts, and family mediation specializes in resolving conflicts in the family environment, such as divorce, child support, adoption, and other aspects of family life.
