Barclaydevere offers high-quality confidential mediation services in the County of Bedfordshire to assist you to resolve family, civil, commercial or community disputes.
Mediation is organised at convenient venues that most suit the participants. These are organised online for time and convenience.
Although Barclaydevere offers mediation at a local level, we also provide family, mediation throughout the UK.
In the case of family mediation it can be arranged 7-days a week at times convenient to the participants, including evenings and weekends.
Barclaydevere mediators are trained to listen to the concerns of each party and encourage those in dispute to reach a self-resolution to their differences that is most practical and acceptable to them.
In cases involving family mediation, the old adages “time is money” and “timing is everything” take on a renewed truthfulness.
In mediation, the length of the entire proceedings as well as the final agreement’s success can be dependent on critical issues involving timing. Some of them are literal timing concerns – like the meeting time for the mediation sessions. Others, however, may involve the speed at which one individual wants to move the mediation versus the other party.
This strategy should also be applied to any relatively recent family issue such as a divorce. All this is a result of non- communication. When people go on without communicating with each other for long intervals it gives rise to doubts and suspicions which lead to bonds getting weaker within the family.
Couples mediation.
When children are involved during the family resolution process, we ensure that their views are heard within a safe forum that enables them to be openly forthcoming with their comments.
At Barclaydevere we are sensitive to the needs of all participants. It is not our place to take sides or to cast judgments over the rights and wrongs of a dispute.
Nevertheless, the mediator will ensure that the process is conducted sympathetically and with complete impartiality.
Our aim is to help the participants to reach the most practicable solution to their dispute efficiently, effectively and with the minimum of stress.
Barclaydevere’s mediation services are available to provide an informal approach to dispute resolutions.
Mediation encourages people involved in family disputes to discuss their concerns openly in an informal environment. Although lawyers can be present to provide advice; their attendance during the mediation process is not mandatory and is a matter of personal choice.
During a split or separation, couples can often end up arguing and fighting over family matters which lead to dispute. This is where our mediators come into play. Family mediators provide dispute resolution services to families that are dealing with sensitive issues like disputes over property, access of a child or finance division. Divorce can be an expensive situation and when using a solicitor the fees can rise rapidly. This can be further complicated where the parties involved cannot agree on the share of the equity or child arrangements,
Mediation saves you money because you are taking control of the process and decision making, in addition disputes can be often resolved much quicker.
