Family Mediation Services in Sydney You Can Trust

At Segal Conflict Solutions, we specialise in helping families navigate the difficult process of separation and divorce. Led by Saranne Segal, who brings nearly 30 years of expertise in mediation and conflict resolution. Our experienced team understands how stressful and emotionally draining this period can be, especially when children are involved. We offer a calm, confidential space, quick appointment times, and a neutral process that keeps you in control while saving you the time and expense of going to court.

Our divorce mediation services are designed for:

• Separated or Divorcing Couples: Whatever your circumstances, we guide you through separation with clarity and calm.
• Families with Children: We help parents prioritise their children’s well-being by guiding co-parenting arrangements.
• Couples Seeking Financial Settlements: We mediate financial and property disputes, helping you reach fair, equitable agreements without costly litigation.

• Empathy in Mediation: We recognise the stress and pain that come with family conflict, and we are here to help you navigate these difficult times with understanding and care.
• Cost-effective mediations: Instead of spending tens of thousands on legal fees, we offer affordable mediation services. For example, a court hearing may cost each parent up to $80,000, while mediation ranges from $1,500 to $3,000.
• Faster Resolutions: We can see clients within seven days of their contacting our office or even sooner for urgent matters. The sooner you see us and resolve all the issues in dispute, the sooner the emotional toll on you and your children will diminish.
• Control over the outcome: You and your ex-partner know your family better than any court judge. Mediation lets you maintain control over the decisions that impact your family, instead of leaving it to a judge.
• Resolving all parenting matters: We help resolve disputes about child living arrangements, holidays, special days, and communication. These agreements can be formalised into parenting plans or consent orders through the court.
• Financial Settlements: After separation, finances often become a major concern. Mediation helps you and your ex reach a fair agreement, saving time, stress, and thousands in legal costs. With support from your lawyer, we aim for a practical outcome both sides can accept.
• Child Inclusive Mediation: This means giving your children a voice at the mediation table by bringing in a qualified child consultant to meet with your children.
• Work with Your Lawyer if You Choose: We can also facilitate legally assisted mediation sessions if you prefer to have your lawyer directly involved in negotiations.
• Issuing of Section 60I Certificates: If an agreement cannot be reached, we can issue the required Section 60I Certificate, enabling you to proceed with court action if necessary.
• Shuttle Mediation: We offer shuttle mediation when needed, ensuring that both parties can be heard without having to be in the same room, which helps reduce tension in high-conflict cases.
• Referrals to Other Professionals: We can refer you to additional support, including solicitors, counsellors, psychologists, and financial advisors, to ensure that you receive comprehensive care throughout the process.
