1. Family Mediation Process:
- Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process where both parties, with the help of a neutral third party (the mediator), attempt to resolve their disputes out of court.
- The Family Courts Act 1964 encourages the use of mediation to resolve disputes related to divorce, child custody, and maintenance. Our law chamber offers professional mediation services to help families resolve conflicts amicably and ensure all parties’ rights are respected.
- Family mediation is particularly useful in disputes over divorce, custody, and financial settlements.
2. Legal Framework:
- Mediation can take place under the guidance of Section 10 of the Family Courts Act, 1964, which encourages reconciliation between spouses before granting a decree for dissolution of marriage.
