With Courts reopening to long delays, Mediation is playing an even more important role in helping to resolve disputes at an early stage.  We are pleased to be offering a Mediation service to Bathurst and the Central West. 

What is Mediation?

Mediation is a form of alternate dispute resolution, which is voluntary and confidential. As your Mediator, my role is to:

  • Assist you in reaching an agreement by acting as an impartial and neutral person.
  • Facilitate discussions and explore issues and options for the resolution of your dispute. 
  • Not take sides or impose a decision on any of the parties. The parties retain ownership of the decisions and the issues.

Anything discussed at Mediation remains confidential to the parties and cannot be used in Court proceedings or taken outside the Mediation.

Mediation can involve the parties themselves, or parties and legal representatives.

As a member of the Australian Institute of Family Law Arbitrators and Mediators (AIFLAM) and a nationally accredited Mediator, registered under the National Mediator Accreditation Scheme, I am here to help with disputes in a broad range of areas including:   

  • Family Law Property,
  • Personal Injury,
  • Estate Disputes and Family Provision Claims,
  • Employment,
  • Building, and
  • Commercial disputes.

For more information on the mediation process, or advice relating to a dispute, please contact our office on (02) 6331 2911. You can also visit the KS Mediate page on our website. We're here to help!
