How Family Mediation works in 3 simple steps
Step 1 - Individual MAIM
Mediation begins with a confidential Individual Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting (MIAM).
Step 2 - Family Mediation Meetings
After the MIAM, joint mediation sessions bring both parties together with a trained mediator.
Step 3 - Agreement Documents
After mediation sessions, we can draft agreements documents to support next steps.

· Clarify next steps for children, finances, or property
· Receive impartial guidance from an accredited mediator
We provide MIAMs across the Thames Valley (Henley, Reading, Maidenhead, Marlow, Oxford) and online nationwide. Book your MIAM today to take the first step toward resolving your family matters peacefully. Learn more about MIAMs.
