AVAILABLE NOW:
The Family Mediation Voucher Scheme provides funding to help families
navigate the complexities of separation, giving them the opportunity to
settle issues around childcare and finances outside of court.
The voucher is not means tested and is available to all parties attending
mediation to discuss child arrangements.
Separating couples work with experts to reach agreements with less
conflict and greater emphasis on the voices of children. Early analysis from
the first 7,200 families to use the scheme, shows more than two-thirds
reached agreement without the need to go to court.
Through the voucher scheme, families can access a contribution of up to
£500 towards family mediation regarding children and child arrangements.
Separation and divorce can have a lasting impact on children, mediation
reduces conflict and helps parents reach an agreement regarding their
children without having to go to court.
Most parents who attend mediation are surprised to discover they can
reach a resolution in just a few sessions and can leave with clear parenting
and financial plans and the confidence to make it work, without the need for
lawyers or courts.
The financial value of mediation must not be underestimated. Solicitors can
charge large amounts to sort out child arrangements and financial
resolutions through the courts. In addition to the costs the court route can
take up to a year to reach a resolution.
By contrast many couples who attend mediation reach a resolution in
respect of their children and finances in between three and five sessions.
This is a lot cheaper and quicker than going through the courts and the
voucher subsidy bring the cost down even more.
Manchester and Cheshire Mediation is part of the Family Mediation
Voucher Scheme. This means that the first mediation session will be paid
for by the voucher. Please contact us on 07943286229 for more
