Accredited Family Mediator in Perth

My commitment is simple—to help keep separated couples out of the Family Court and minimise their need for lawyers, saving them time, money and anguish. Under my guidance, separated couples are able to Move On with their lives through family mediation.

Things to consider

At Move On, our Perth family mediator helps you and your ex-partner come to an agreed settlement, and then we guide you through the Court processes, simply and quickly, without having to resort to family lawyers. Saving you time, money and stress.

It may be important to get the Family Court to formally approve your agreement after separation – this provides finality and the agreement becomes binding and, if someone does not comply, enforceable by the Courts.

There may also be stamp duty benefits where properties are being transferred.

Couples who resolve family conflicts tend to maintain better relationships moving forward.

Children who’ve had the benefit of parents who chose family mediation avoid the drawn-out stresses and begin healing much earlier on.

Family Court

Family Courts struggling to meet demands means separation takes longer.

While you wait, your life remains on hold and the stresses go on.

Family law conflicts are determined by Court officials who don’t know the parties or their children. Predicting outcomes when it comes to family disputes is virtually impossible.

Lawyers charge according to the time they spend on your case and not on the results they achieve. Even simple matters can cost a fortune. And that’s money you’ll never see again.

Family disputes that go through the courts make it virtually impossible for ex-couples to see eye-to-eye or move forward positively when getting a divorce.

Children are often affected by the ongoing battle between their parents when they go through the Family Court.

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.
