What is mediation?
Mediation is an alternate dispute resolution mechanism. It is a negotiation process in which an independent person, mediator, assists the parties to identify issues and assess options and negotiate an agreement so their dispute is resolved. Instead of going to Court where litigation is uncertain, a dispute resolution can be an effective mechanism if the parties are willing to participate in it. Our mediation and dispute resolution lawyers in Sydney can help you arrange a mediation meeting and will discuss and frame all the aspects of mediation on your behalf keeping your merits in front.

Dispute Resolution in Family Law Context:
If mediation is suitable and all parties are willing, mediation will be arranged between all parties. Mediation sittings Are Generally Booked in 3-hour blocks. If issues are completely resolved then parties can book another mediation session.
If a party refuses to attempt mediation then, a Section 60I Certificate will be issued. The Section 601 Certificate will generally state the reasons and allows either party to pursue their legal options including, filing court documents.
