We are Bonallack & Bishop – solicitors based in Wiltshire, Hampshire and acting for clients nationwide, who specialise in family law and divorce. Our team are particularly aware of how stressful and emotional any issue arising out of the breakdown of a marriage or relationship can be, and strive to assist both parties in minimising conflict where possible. We are huge fans of both family mediation and collaborative law and believe, that for the many people these two approaches suit, it offers them the best chance of resolving any family law problems swiftly and with dignity – while significantly reducing any levels of argument and bitterness. It works particularly well when children are involved because they, above all, need to be kept safe from the emotional harm caused by experiences of parents arguing bitterly.

Do I need a jointly qualified Family Mediator/Lawyer?
Choosing a mediator who is both an experienced and qualified family lawyer and a mediator is really important. This is because your mediator needs an in-depth understanding of family law as well as accreditation as a mediator. The only way to guarantee this is to choose a jointly qualified family lawyer/mediator.
Our family mediator is also an experienced family lawyer – who knows all too well the stress and expense associated with court proceedings and is dedicated to using family mediation to find effective solutions for families.
