How Shuttle Mediation Derby works for Families?
Face to face or shuttle mediation is important in resolving disputes and helping families find agreement, saving time, money, and effort.
A mediator can help couples, ex-partners, ex-spouses, or family members communicate about their concerns and reach a peaceful resolution. This avoids costly and harmful court battles.
Shuttle mediation is a type of mediation where the disputing parties are in separate rooms or locations. Our mediator acts as a “go-between” and discusses the issue with each party separately, bringing proposals from one party to the other during negotiations.
This type of mediation is commonly used when direct mediation between the parties is unsuccessful or not feasible due to reasons like restraining orders, intimidation, bitterness, domestic violence, or emotional ssues.
Shuttle mediation provides a safe and comfortable environment for all parties involved to discuss their concerns, focus on the raised issues, and explore practical and attainable solutions.
In the UK, shuttle mediation involves a qualified mediator who acts as an intermediary between disputing parties. The mediator meets with each party separately, conveying messages and proposals between them to facilitate resolution. This approach is often used in situations where direct communication between parties may be challenging or emotionally charged.
Shuttle mediation is not legally binding by itself. But if both parties agree, any agreements made during mediation can be documented and made legally binding through a separate legal process or by including them in a formal legal agreement.
Shuttle mediation with National Family Mediation Service Derby is often suggested in family disputes when direct communication is challenging, such as in cases with high conflict, domestic violence, or when parties prefer separation. It offers a structured and controlled setting for resolving issues.
