    Ep. 17 - What is hybrid mediation?

    When couples look to separate without going to court, mediation is a well-known option. However, how many have heard of hybrid mediation? By bringing together the best of both the family and the civil mediation models, hybrid mediation allows for lawyer support in the mediation room. But is it just a more expensive way of mediating?  In this episode, Tim and Jen are joined by Mills & Reeve consultant Suzanne Kingston. Suzanne is an experienced mediator, arbitrator and collaborative lawyer, with expertise in resolving complex financial issues and children matters. Together they discuss hybrid mediation: what it is, the difference between classic and hybrid mediation, the process and its advantages.  To find out more about Suzanne and how she can help you visit: www.mills-reeve.com/people/suzanne-kingston You can find out more about mediation and our out-of-court services by visiting our website: www.mills-reeve.com/sectors-and-services/services-for-individuals/family-and-children/alternatives-to-court/

    Ep. 15 - Child inclusive mediation

    Resolving disputes without going to court is a viable option for couples who want a more amicable approach to agreeing to the terms of their divorce. Mediation is one of the most popular approaches, and child inclusive mediation is a great option for couples with children, as it allows children to have their voices heard. But when parents disagree about what they want, should mediators ask their children? In this episode, Tim and Jen are joined by Mills & Reeve Partner, Mediator and Arbitrator Alison Bull. Together they discuss child inclusive mediation: what it is, the process, the importance of children’s voices and practical considerations. Listen back to episode 2 where Tim and Jen discuss family mediation.
