Mediation

Separating couples need to know that they can retain collaborative lawyers or attend mediation. Collaboration and mediation are dispute resolution processes that do not rely on the litigation model.

Mediation is a process that allows separating couples to meet, and with the assistance of the mediator, to achieve resolutions on the many issues that must be addressed including parenting plans, property divisions, pensions, maintenance and support.

Mediation is a process that is also available to the couple following a divorce or when issues arise relating to ongoing support or affecting children. Nancy will act as a neutral third party and facilitate direct and respectful communication between the couple.

Nancy is qualified to mediate family matters and she received her training in May 1993 through the Continuing Legal Education Society of B.C. Nancy believes that most families and couples can successfully resolve their issues such as property division, pensions, parenting plans, maintenance and support in a manner that is respectful and cost effective.
