Divorce Mediation for Families Brisbane
Mediation is a practical and supportive way to help individuals resolve conflicts with the guidance of a neutral third party. For separated families in Brisbane, family mediation—also known as Family Dispute Resolution (FDR)—offers a constructive alternative to court proceedings, especially when it comes to parenting arrangements.
At Simple Separation, we encourage mediation as a more peaceful and child-focused approach to handling parenting disputes. This process fosters cooperation and reduces conflict, making it a healthier choice for families going through separation.
Mediation Formats Available in Brisbane
Our experienced mediators will evaluate your situation and recommend the best approach, including:
Joint Mediation – Both parties join the same online session.
Shuttle Mediation – Each party stays in a separate online room while the mediator facilitates communication.
Benefits of Family Mediation
Empowerment: You have more control over decisions compared to court-imposed outcomes.
Affordable: It’s a cost-effective solution compared to lengthy legal battles.
Child-Focused: The process prioritizes the needs and well-being of your children.
Reduces Conflict: Encourages respectful dialogue and minimizes stress.
Safe Environment: Direct contact can be avoided if necessary.
Neutral Guidance: A mediator ensures fair and balanced discussions.
Potential Limitations
Mediation works best when both parties are willing to participate and negotiate in good faith.
There is no guaranteed outcome—agreements depend on mutual cooperation.

*Please be advised Australian Family Law makes it compulsory to attempt Family Dispute Resolution (mediation) before filing for parenting orders in court. Section 60i Certificates are required to lodge a children’s matter with the Family Court of Australia. If you are unsuccessful in mediation, you will be provided with a S60i certificate.
