Common Challenges We Help With

01

"I don't want to lose everything in legal fees"

Court battles drain your settlement before you see a dollar. Mediation keeps your money in your pocket, not your lawyer’s.

02

"My ex won't be reasonable about anything"

Emotions run high and positions get entrenched. A skilled mediator shifts focus from blame to practical solutions that work for both parties.

03

"I have no idea what I'm entitled to"

The rules around property division feel like a foreign language. Lisanne’s legal background means you get clarity on your rights without the legal jargon.

04

"Court sounds terrifying and I want to avoid it"

Courtrooms are stressful and unpredictable. Mediation gives you control over the outcome in a private, supportive environment.

Common questions

Settlement Mediation FAQ

How much does mediation cost compared to going to court?

Mediation typically costs a fraction of court proceedings. Most cases resolve in 2-4 sessions, while court battles can drag on for months or years with legal fees mounting.

What if my ex-partner refuses to participate?

Mediation requires both parties to agree to attend. If your ex won’t participate, we can discuss other options during your consultation.

How long does the mediation process take?

Most property settlements resolve within 2-4 mediation sessions over 4-8 weeks. Complex cases with significant assets may take longer.

Can mediation work if there's been domestic violence?

Safety comes first. If there’s been violence or intimidation, mediation may not be appropriate and we’ll recommend other pathways.

Do I need a lawyer present during mediation?

You can attend alone or bring legal representation—it’s your choice. Many people find mediation less intimidating without lawyers present.

Is online mediation as effective as face-to-face?

Yes, online mediation is equally effective and often more comfortable. You’re in familiar surroundings and can access documents easily from your computer.

What happens to the agreement we reach?

Your mediated agreement can be made legally binding through consent orders filed with the Family Court. This gives you the same legal protection as a court judgment.
