The Mediation Information Assessment Meeting ("MIAM") is an 'intake' session. It is the first step in the family mediation process. Attendance by one person at a MIAM is generally required before you can file a court application relating to the children and/or finances.
The purpose of the MIAM is for me to explain how the mediation process works, for you to tell me about your situation, and for a decision to be made as to whether mediation could be an effective alternative to court proceedings in your case. If mediation is not appropriate, I complete a form confirming you have attended a MIAM and refer you on to other services.

Separating from a partner, disentangling the family finances, and tending to the needs of any children can feel impossibly difficult.
Mediation can assist separating couples to understand and make decisions about:
• the division of the family finances;
• child contact arrangements/parenting plans; and
• the court forms and the court process.

During mediation participants can revisit plans/orders and address aspects that are no longer working.

It is possible to involve your child in the mediation process through involving a child inclusive qualified mediator and/or child psychologist to speak to the child directly.
When done in the right context, with careful forethought and preparation, involving children in the mediation process can be very useful. There are many considerations when deciding whether it is appropriate for your child to be involved. Whether or not parents feel it appropriate can become clearer as the mediation progresses. If you are interested in child inclusive mediation, we can discuss this.
