National Family Mediation (NFM) helps families in conflict, especially those going through divorce or separation, to turn arguments into agreements. Our expert mediators support you in resolving issues around children, property, and finances, helping you avoid the stress, cost, and delays of going to court.
What we offer:
- Family mediation for couples and families experiencing separation or divorce, including arrangements for children, finances, and property.
- Child-inclusive mediation to ensure children's voices are heard in the process.
- Affordable legal advice through our NFM LegalEyes service, helping you access high-quality legal support without spiralling costs.
- Guides and resources to help you navigate the emotional and practical aspects of separation, including downloadable guides and advice for parents, grandparents, children, and friends.
- Access to the government’s Family Mediation Voucher Scheme, which may provide up to £500 towards the cost of mediation for eligible families.
