Do you have questions or need more information?
Property & Financial Settlements
Bayside Mediation’s experienced mediators sit with you and explain all your options. We offer separating couples an opportunity to explore all avenues. We provide guidance in resolving their Financial & Property Settlements and to determine what’s best in their situation.
We provide answers to the many questions you will have and work with you to help you decide what to do first and where to go from here.
You may not realise it, but there are a number of options open to you when you separate and have financial matters to settle.
Here are some options for Financial Settlements :
- You can work things out between the two of you . It is wise to have your financial settlement agreement formalised so it becomes legally binding
- You can use Mediation via a Family Dispute Resolutions Practitioner
- You can use Collaborative Mediation. Collaborative mediation combines the best and most successful strategies of collaborative law with the pure simplicity and cost effectiveness of mediation with outstanding success.
- Or Lawyer Assisted Mediation. Legally assisted mediation is essentially the same process as conventional mediation only both you and your former partner agree to bring your lawyers into the problem solving and agreement-making phase
- You can engage Lawyers to negotiate your Financial Settlements for you
- Or you can take your matter to Court and have a Judge make the decision for you.
Understanding the advantages and disadvantages of these options is important, to make the right decisions for you and your family. A Family Dispute Resolutions Practitioner can help you make the right decisions. At Bayside Mediation we offer a free 30 minute telephone consultation to help you get started in the right direction.
