Trusted family mediation support
MIAMS Family Mediation Service
Clear, calm guidance to help you understand your options, meet court requirements, and move forward with more confidence.
A calmer starting point
A clearer and calmer way to begin before court
Going through a separation or divorce can understandably feel overwhelming, especially when significant decisions need to be made about children, finances and future arrangements.
Resolving these issues does not mean rushing into court. Family mediation offers a constructive way to explore possible solutions, and in many cases the process begins with a MIAM.
Accredited support
Accredited through the Family Mediation Council, our family mediators provide clear guidance and impartial support so you can understand your options and take the next step with greater confidence.
What Is a MIAM?
A MIAM (Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting) is a private one-to-one appointment with a qualified neutral mediator. During the meeting, you can discuss your situation and learn more about the options available to you.
Importantly, a MIAM helps you understand whether mediation could help resolve the issues you are facing before deciding how to move forward.
In many family court applications, attending a MIAM is also a legal requirement before starting proceedings.
It is natural to have a lot of questions before you begin. To help make things clearer, we have created guidance about the MIAM process using our MIAMS Knowledge Hub.
How mediation helps
How Can a Mediator Help Me?
If an agreement between you and your ex has not yet been reached, you can try mediation to help solve your dispute. Rather than escalating the situation through court proceedings, mediation creates a structured and supportive environment where both parties can discuss matters calmly and work towards a practical resolution.
Throughout the process, a qualified mediator will guide the conversation, helping both parties focus on the issues that need the most attention.
