Why we are backing Family Mediation Week 2018

22-26 January 2018 is Family Mediation Week. Organised by the Family Mediators Association (FMA), the campaign aims to raise awareness of mediation as an alternative to court battles for separating couples. 

Mediation can help you take control of your own family’s future, making constructive decisions together rather than asking someone else to decide what should happen to your children or your finances.

We want to help and support people at the point of separation, and also let other people know that family mediation is an option they can suggest to friends or family members who are experiencing separation and don’t know where to go for help. 

To find out more about family mediation and whether you might qualify for legal aid funded mediation,  please contact our Family teams in Halifax (01422 339637), Brighouse (01484 710571) or Huddersfield (01484 483800) or email mediation@wilkinsonwoodward.co.uk
