Real Stories about Family Mediation in Bury
I initially rejected mediation as I have young children and work so could not see how I could fit it in. Doing it online in an hour’s gap when my youngest was at nursery made it so much easier, and we sorted everything in two sessions. I also felt less pressured than if we had both been in the same room.
