WHAT IS FINANCIAL MEDIATION Alderley Edge?

It is a formal process in which an impartial, trained mediator helps couples or family members negotiate financial disagreements outside of court.

It includes:

Property and home arrangements
Savings, debts, and investments
Pensions and long-term financial planning
Spousal or child financial support

Mediation allows you to decide the outcome of the matter at hand, while a judge will render their decision in court proceedings for you.

Our trained mediators offer a confidential process to cover difficult issues. Speak freely and calmly with your former partner to find a fast resolution to financial matters.
