All Families Mediation
All Families Mediation
As a family mediator, I regularly meet separating couples who are surprised to discover that living together for many years does not give them the same legal rights as married couples or civil partners. Whatever reforms may follow, clear information, early conversations and constructive dispute resolution remain essential. Mediation can help cohabiting couples explore practical solutions around property, finances and arrangements for children without the cost and stress of court proceedings.
It will be interesting to see how this consultation shapes the future for the growing number of cohabiting families in the UK.
