Family Law and Divorce Mediation

Resolve Disputes Amicably with Legal Support

Facing a family law dispute arising from the end of a marriage or de facto relationship?

Family law mediation offers a cost-effective and less adversarial way to reach a solution that works for everyone involved. Mediation can address a wide range of issues commonly encountered during separation, such as:

  • Parenting arrangements: Determining living arrangements, custody schedules, and decision-making responsibilities for your children.
  • Division of property and finances: Reaching agreements on how to fairly distribute assets, debts, and ongoing financial obligations.
  • Spousal support: Negotiating potential spousal maintenance, if applicable.

Here at Unified Lawyers, our experienced family lawyers can provide vital support throughout your mediation process, ensuring you feel informed and empowered throughout this challenging time.

Why Family Law Mediation?

Are you looking for a more amicable and cost-effective way
to resolve your family law dispute? 

Family law mediation offers a number of advantages over traditional litigation, including:

  • Maintain Control: In mediation, you and your ex-partner have control over the decision-making process, unlike court proceedings.
  • Reduced Conflict: A neutral mediator facilitates communication, minimising conflict and emotional strain.
  • Mutually Beneficial Outcomes: Mediation allows you to reach a fair and amicable agreement that meets everyone’s needs.
  • Cost-Effective: Mediation can be significantly less expensive than litigation.

In addition to these benefits, you will also have one of our family law mediation lawyers to support you through the whole process.

Client Testimonials and Reviews

  • Sarah Taylor

    During 2021 I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Antoinette Marie Gauci from Unified Family Lawyers.

    After meeting and consulting with more than one firm I choose to work with Antoinette as I navigated my separation and property settlement. From the initial appointment to final settlement I found Antoinette to be informative, supportive and fair in the advise she offered . I always felt as though my best interests were being highlighted and all of my communications were answered promptly.

    Apart from offering exceptional service I also felt that UFA was very reasonably priced.

    I would highly recommend working with Unified Family Lawyers.

    I’m so thankful for the service provided by Unified Family Lawyers in regards to my family matter.

Together they obtained the optimal outcome for me and now I have my life in order. I highly recommend.

  • Luci-Anne Kreller

    Alex and Donna are unparalleled professionals and experts in their fields. If you are going through a difficult divorce, it can be really hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Alex and Donna have helped make this emotionally stressful time as easy as I think it can be with their down to earth and diligent communication. They take a lot of pride in their work and they are extremely talented and experienced. I genuinely feel like I am in very capable and caring hands. I can’t be any more grateful to them and the whole Unified Family Lawyers team. If you want someone on your side, you need to speak to Alex and Donna!

  • Kristenn Wong

    Navigating separation and divorce can typically be an emotionally, mentally and financially onerous undertaking.

    However, engaging Unified Lawyers and entrusting my matter to the highly capable and consistently responsive team of Alex Bourne and Chris Kissoglou has certainly alleviated my stress, knowing that they were acting in my best interests with their sensible and pragmatic advice. With their skilled assistance, I was able to finalise my parenting plan and property settlement via mediation with a pleasing outcome that obviated the protracted costs of litigation.

  • Shreya

    Highly recommend Unified Lawyers and a special mention to the lawyer who assisted me with my case – Donna Nguyen. She was thoroughly professional since the day I contacted her, always on top of asking for information, filing the case on time and ensuring communication was top notch every step of the way. Most importantly very upfront around fees structure and was very informative around any hidden fees throughout the process. If every lawyer was like her, there wouldn’t ever be a single person left in doubt around laws and court procedures. She’s an absolute rockstar!

  • Geetha De Silva

    When looking for a family lawyer, a firm in the city asked for a large sum upfront to start with. With unified lawyers, upfront fee was reasonable and affordable for someone going through a difficult period in their life. I was invoiced monthly as I went, which was helpful. Taylor Reardon was my lawyer and she was very friendly and easy to communicate with. She did a great job guiding me through the process and supporting me through the asset split after separation. I highly recommend unified lawyers for family law matters.

    I am so glad finally it came to an end!!. Thank you so much Taylor! you have advised me accordingly as to where I stand in my situation, and resolved my problem amicably. I was advised by many to how solicitors over charging their clients, unfortunately, it was not with Unified Family Lawyers. They are so reasonable in terms of charges and understand their clients well. I did the right choice by engaging the right firm.

  • muntashir mamun

    I recommend Unified Lawyers for any Family or Domestic violence or issues; I have received excellent consultation when I called them first time in regards to an issue related to my neighbour. They first listen to issue and explained what would be potential ways to deal with the issue from lawful perspective and also send an follow up email to confirmed what was discussed. I was very worried with the particular issue but after talking to them I sensed hope and clear understanding what to do next. I give them a five star.
