A Path to Succesful Mediation
The degree of success in any mediation is based on the willingness of the parents to make decisions in the best interests of the child and to work together collaboratively to ensure their child continues to live their best life.
Donna will provide a non-judgemental, friendly, professional service. Successful mediation ensures you will avoid long expensive court proceedings which often conclude with the parental relationship being destroyed. Mediation can help parents reach agreements and support the parental relationship. It is much better for a child to go home to home when their parents have a basic parental alliance.
