If you qualify for Legal Aid then your mediation meetings will be free. Most people in receipt of Universal Credit will be eligible for Legal Aid, we can signpost you to a service that can assist you with legal aid, if necessary, as we are no longer taking on legal aid clients.

For children’s cases the Mediation Voucher Scheme will be able to assist with the costs of meetings. This is non-means tested and provides up to £500 towards the cost of joint meetings.

Our private fees, these are inclusive, which means you are not charged additionally for; letters, phone calls etc. Also we do not charge VAT, so the prices you see here are the prices that you pay. Please note you are individually responsible for your fees only.
