Family Dispute Resolution Service

Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) is a structured process that helps separated or separating families.

They're able to discuss issues around parenting, property, and finances, focus on the wellbeing of children, explore options and make decisions together and avoid the time, stress, and cost of going to court.

Our practitioners are impartial mediators, encouraging respectful communication, and guiding families to develop workable solutions.

When parents separate, children are often deeply affected by the changes in family life.

That’s why your child’s best interests is always the first priority in Family Dispute Resolution (FDR).

While mediation is primarily between parents, there are times when it can be helpful for children’s voices to be heard through a safe, structured process.

Separation and divorce can be overwhelming for parents, children, and the whole family.

Post-Separation Counselling provides professional support to help you manage the emotional challenges and mental wellbeing, reduce conflict, and create a more positive path forward.
