Divorce In A Day & Family Mediation Gold Coast
The idea behind Divorce In A Day is to have an efficient process that supports couples leading up to the day of mediation. There is a mediation mentor assigned to each couple who helps them prepare for the day of mediation. Once at mediation, couples have about a 90% chance of reaching agreement. That’s a significant outcome for couples during this stressful period of their lives.Â
A GOLD COAST FIRST
This method of family mediation is a Gold Coast first. Below Marie explains it to the Today Show’s hosts. As Marie tells it, a couple who couldn’t even talk to each other sat down with a mediator, who helped them reach and agreement.
HOW FAMILY MEDIATION WORKS
Your first appointment with Family Mediation Station will last one hour. We’ll use that time to identify the key points we need to address. We’ll also identify any support services you might need to access.Â
Following on from that is your personalised preparation. Working through this helps you realise and be clear about what you want from your mediation. During this period we are preparing you for the mediation that follows. Everyone wants the best possible outcome from the day of mediation and this preparation is key to your success.Â
On the day of meditation you will spend 4 hours with the mediator and then having you finalised agreement written up. The agreement is a legally binding document. We’ll give you step-by-step instructions on how to submit this document with the courts.Â
For more information see A step by step guide to the mediation process.
Of course, there are instances when an agreement can’t be reached. If this happens, you can always try again. Or we can issue you an s60i document so that you can go before the courts if you wish to. We have to emphasise that the key to family mediation is preparation. Hence the steps outlined above are key to reaching mediation on the day. When entered into in good faith, and with a clear understanding of goals, family mediation usually reaches an agreement that both sides can settle on.Â
