Mediation for Property Disputes (TOLATA Claims)

Properties often carry financial and personal significance, making the mediation process essential for resolving the emotional and complex challenges of their equitable division during disputes.

There are many different types of family. Sometimes your separation can be following a relationship where you did not marry, but had children and/or shared a property together.

Not only can this be hard to deal with emotionally but there also might be issues about the housing arrangements for each parent and the children following separation, how they are to be supported and the ownership of the family home. There may have been decisions made when you started living together that now need to be changed to reflect the needs of the children until they become adults or the contributions that have been made.

These are complicated matters that can involve both The Children Act 1989 and the civil law (TOLATA 1996). The mediators who handle these matters are experienced lawyers who can help you navigate these issues and reach a proposal that should avoid lengthy, uncertain, and expensive court hearings and legal fees.
