Intake and Assessment of ‘Suitability to Mediate’ Appointment is conducted separately for each party.

Where there are multiple parties (eg multiple grandparents, an aunt or uncle and / or parents) each person is counted as a party.

The information discussed at the intake and assessment is confidential and is booked for 60 minutes. 

Anything discussed in this appointment is not shared with any other party without express permission.

Within this session the Mediator can provide you with any information you may need, discuss your options, as well as information on the mediation process.
