Why People Are Turning to Mediation

Legal disputes can take months, sometimes years, to resolve. They can also become extremely expensive. Mediation offers a more collaborative process where both parties work towards an agreement with the guidance of a neutral mediator.

Mediation is consistently encouraged before legal proceedings begin. In many family disputes, individuals are required to attend a Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting, also known as an MIAM, before applying to court. You can learn more about this process on our page explaining what a MIAM is.

Choosing mediation services can help you:

  • Resolve disputes faster than court processes

  • Reduce legal costs and stress

  • Maintain privacy and confidentiality

  • Preserve relationships where possible

  • Reach agreements that work for everyone involved

For many families and businesses, mediation provides a calmer and more practical path forward.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • In many family cases, the court expects individuals to attend a MIAM before making an application. This allows people to explore mediation as a possible solution before legal proceedings begin.

    You can read more about this requirement in our guide on 6 ways to avoid family court.

  • Mediation itself is not legally binding. However, agreements reached during mediation can often be formalised through a solicitor or court order if both parties wish to do so.

  • Mediation is typically far more affordable than litigation. Court cases can involve legal fees, barristers, and lengthy timelines. Our guide comparing mediation vs court costs explains the difference in more detail.
