Family dispute resolution, mediation is a process where parents and grandparents who are experiencing conflict over parenting and/or property matters can negotiate their issues with the support of an impartial mediator.

Positive Solutions provides an affordable alternative for separating families to resolve their issues. Our family dispute resolution practitioners can help you and your ex-partner to reach mediated parenting and/or property agreements outside of the courts.

Our Child Inclusive Practice services are a part of our family dispute resolution services, where children can be engaged with the process to ensure that their voice is heard.
