​

Family Arbitration & Private Financial Adjudication

​

Several of our members are qualified and accredited arbitrators, willing to take appointment as arbitrators of third-party financial claims arising in family proceedings.

​

Our experienced family barristers are also willing to take appointment as private adjudicators of a Private Financial Adjudication under the Practice Direction SL9 Pilot Scheme on Private Adjudication of Financial Disputes in Matrimonial and Family Proceedings [See here].

 

Private FDR

​

Many of our barristers take instructions as the judge or as counsel in private FDRs on a regular basis. Our team is one of the first choices for many solicitors when they decide that a private FDR is the best way forward in terms of trying to reach an early settlement.

​

Mediation

​

Several of our barristers are qualified and experienced family mediators and some offer mediation under the civil mediation model or a hybrid mediation service, including provision of a neutral evaluation of the dispute at the parties’ joint request in the event of a deadlocked mediation. They enthusiastically apply and adapt their long experience of family disputes to assist parties to resolve their disputes quickly, cheaply and with minimal acrimony.

​

Our dispute resolution service deals with the full range of disputes including: child care, custody and access disputes; disputes over children’s education; financial disputes in divorce and child support; property disputes between family members and disputes over inheritance provision. We can also mediate over issues which are less contentious, such as the drafting of pre–nuptial agreements or family arrangements.

​

Our mediators are experienced in and are willing to undertake child-inclusive mediation.

​

Our mediator members are available to mediate in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.
