Financial Settlements & Clean Break Mediation
FMC Accredited Dispute Resolution

Professional Mediation for Financial Settlements

Under Section 25 of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973, courts assess financial remedy based on housing needs, financial resources, earning capacity, standard of living, and contributions. Mediation applies these exact principles in a private, collaborative setting.
