The length of time for family mediation depends on the nature of the dispute and the particular arrangements the parties are looking to resolve. Generally speaking, individuals require between two and six sessions, lasting approximately one to two hours each. However, there are no restrictions on how many sessions it may take to reach an agreement. The time frame is completely up to the clients. Some mediations are completed in a matter of weeks, and others, over years; we work at the pace that our clients prefer.
