Mediating Solutions London is a team of experienced mediators lead by qualified laywers
As mediators, we have extensive experience in dealing with the issues that arise when relationships break down. We see families undergo the trauma of slow and expensive court proceedings. In contrast, we know that mediation, in a calm, professional and supportive environment, helps focus on finding solutions. We offer mediation for separating couples, and where appropriate their wider families, in arrangements for children, including international relocation, financial arrangements including pensions, inheritance and trusts and in child abduction and Court of Protection matters.
Our mediators are available on 07770 683 295 to discuss a matter on a completely confidential basis.
