If you love a good night in, what better way to celebrate your divorce than with a divorce movie night?

Once your marriage is over, the sentimental value of your wedding dress plummets.

Why throw just a party when you could make a whole weekend of it instead?
Gather your friends and head off to a luxury hotel, hire a stunning house or even go glamping if that’s more your style.
Enjoy your time together and really say goodbye emotionally to your divorce.

Mediation
What happens after family mediation depends entirely on whether you reach agreements on all, some, or none of the issues you are seeking to resolve.
The process was so much quicker and easier than I anticipated – after everything I have heard about lawyers! And it was re-assuring for me to know how much it was going to cost at the start, not when it was all over. Thanks, Ian. I’d recommend you to anyone who wants a solution seeker and quick results.

Ian, your patience and persistence really helped us get to an agreement I thought we could never reach. I’d recommend you to anyone who wants to get family issues resolved as painlessly as possible.
— Michael G, Safety Bay WA
Thank you once more for your kindness, wisdom and counsel.
— Georgie N, Wangara WA
Ian worked hard to enable us to reach an agreement. He was always happy to discuss and explain everything we needed.
