Charges

Family Mediation

Legal Aid

Unfortunately I am unable to mediate Legal Aid clients.

If you are eligible for Legal Aid (which is means tested for family mediation only) this will cover all your mediation costs (please go to Helpful Links tab). 

 

Service Charges

If you are not eligible for Legal Aid you will still save money by mediating rather than going to a solicitor.

 

1. Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting (MIAM)

Sole MIAM (up to 1.5hrs) = £100

The MIAM charge covers the provision of signed family court application forms.

 

2. Mediation charges.

Each mediation session is 1.5 hours. Charges are based on each individual’s income and not jointly or per household.

To make family mediation more accessible to those on lower incomes I have a low rate charge and a high rate charge. In your MIAM you will be provided with a charges handout, informed which rate is applicable to you and given a breakdown of your mediation costs including any additional charges for paperwork/documents produced.

 

3. Help with Child Only mediation charges:

I am registered with the Family Mediation Council for the government voucher scheme that provides up to £500 per family towards the costs of child only mediation. You will be informed if you are eligible and can apply.

Inheritance Mediation

In mediation each party is charged separately per mediation session.

 

1. Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting (MIAM)

Sole MIAM (up to 1.5hrs) = £100.

In this meeting you will be provided with information about your future mediation charges including any additional charges for paperwork/documents produced.

 

2. Mediation Charges.

Mediation is charged at £150/hour/person.

Every mediation is for a minimum of 1.5hrs which comes to £225/person.

 

Please Note:

a. Depending on the number of parties involved charges may be adjusted.

b. There is flexibility around the regularity and length of sessions (1.5hrs/ all morning/all afternoon/ all day) depending on the circumstances of the case.
