  • Thanks so much to Mabel, the financial mediation process was excellent. I was dreading having to go through this with my soon to be ex husband to sort out our finances, but Mabel guided us through expertly and impartially. I can highly recommend using this service, as not only is it very professional, but they are very flexible around work comittments you have etc and can hold meetings on face time or zoom.

  • I have spent 30000 solicitors fees I only hoped my ex had accepted Mediation earlier. In one meeting after 1 year the mediator Mabel was amazing, fantastic her patience, her wisdom and skills got me contact with my children who are my life. She was honest and truthful and told both of us stop blaming and move forward. All I wanted was same amount of time with most precious thing on this planet our children. Please we need to end conflict and this mediation is the way forward for all problems. Do not waste your money in court.
