Is family law mediation right for me?
Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) is suitable for families at any stage of their dispute.

Our services are tailored for those dealing with parenting disputes, property settlements, and other family law issues across South East Queensland.
Cost comparison: Mediation vs. Court Proceedings
The cost of family law mediation is significantly lower compared to traditional court proceedings. While mediation expenses typically amount to a fraction of litigation costs, the process allows families to retain control over decision-making and promotes long-term cooperation. Mediation is an affordable and efficient alternative to costly and prolonged court battles, ensuring a smoother resolution for disputes.
