What is property mediation?
Property mediation supports separating couples to reach agreement about how property, assets and finances will be divided. Sessions are structured and impartial, helping both people understand the issues, explore options and make informed decisions together.
My approach is calm and fair, with a focus on reducing conflict, especially where children are part of the picture. As an Accredited Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner registered with the Attorney-General's Department, I mediate both family and property matters. Agreements reached in mediation can then be formalised with the help of your lawyers.
Who it's for
How it works
Tell me about your situation and what needs to be resolved.
I meet with each person separately to understand the issues and check mediation is suitable.
Structured sessions, in person or online, working through options together.
Outcomes are documented so they can be formalised with legal advice.
Independent legal advice: I'm a mediator, not a lawyer, so I recommend each person gets independent legal advice before finalising any property agreement.
Common questions
Do we still need lawyers?
Independent legal advice is recommended. Agreements reached in mediation are usually formalised by lawyers, for example through consent orders or a financial agreement.
Can parenting and property be mediated together?
Yes, where it's suitable, both can be addressed. We'll talk through the best approach for your situation at intake.
What should I prepare?
A general picture of your assets, debts and income is helpful. I'll let you know exactly what to bring before your first session.
