We charge the following fees per person (no VAT). Payment by bank transfer is required in advance of the session. We also participate in the government's family mediation voucher scheme (up to £500 per family - so £250 each) for families mediating about children.
| Mediation information and assessment meeting | £130 per person |
| Certification of MIAM attendance if required | No charge |
| Joint mediation session (90 mins) | £250 per person |
| Discounted session rate for child only mediation (90 mins) (at mediator discretion)* | £210 per person |
| Documents (as applicable) | |
| Parenting Plan (child mediation only, optional) | £100 per person |
| Schedule of Assets & Liabilities and supporting documents (finance mediation only) | £150 per person |
| Summary of Proposals (finance mediation only) | £150 per person |
* Generally limited to parents who are not married, who have lived together for a relatively short time or not at all, and who don't wish to make any financial claim on the other parent (other than child maintenance)
The above charges include reasonable administrative dealings with you by email / phone, and a comprehensive summary note with action points following joint mediation sessions, designed to help you move forwards between sessions. Room hire for in person mediation is shared equally between you and passed on at cost. Any additional fees (for instance for child inclusive mediation, or attendance of a co-mediator or other professional) will be discussed with you and agreed in writing in advance.
