Guidance, assistance and support
What is Family Mediation?
Family mediation can be a cost-effective and non-confrontational way to resolve family problems without the need to go to court.
Browell Smith & Co Solicitors has close working relationships with mediators so that a referral can be made quickly on your behalf to see whether your case would be suitable. Our highly-experienced and dedicated team can provide you with guidance, assistance and support through the mediation process.
If you are already in the mediation process but wish to have a second opinion or advice on a likely settlement then we can advise you appropriately and constructively.
If an agreement is reached at mediation then we can ensure the agreement is drafted accordingly into a legal document. It is important to know that agreements reached at mediation are not legally binding and therefore independent legal advice is essential. We are there to assist you if the process breaks down and advise you on the next steps.
We work in partnership with local mediators including Family Mediation North East to offer tailor made cost limitation packages that support the mediation process.
