On-site mediation: same day or scheduled, no cost.

If both parties want to try to reach an agreement, we offer mediation on, before or after their scheduled court date. Your mediator is a skilled and neutral professional who will work with both parties to help them reach agreements.

It is available for:

  • first appearance
  • motions
  • conferences
  • pre-trials
  • trials
  • Dispute Resolution Officer meetings (in the SCJ)

WE MEDIATE:

  • financial disclosure
  • temporary or final parenting schedules, decisions and communication issues
  • temporary or final child support
  • special expenses for children
  • travel and mobility issues
  • temporary spousal support
  • simple property issues
  • any other matters referred by the court, lawyers or parties.

 

Hybrid services: we offer online mediation using Zoom or in-person mediation in the Family Law Information Centres in each court.

You can be referred to onsite mediation by the first appearance clerk, a judge or a lawyer.

You can also choose to mediate without any referral.

Mediation is voluntary; you can attend the intake meeting and then decide whether you want to continue.

We will meet each of you first to confirm that your matter is appropriate for onsite mediation.

If the mediation does not proceed, neither party will be blamed for that decision.

Your lawyer is welcome at onsite mediation but you do not need a lawyer to participate.
