Who this service is for

Property mediation is suitable for separated couples, former partners or co-owners who need to reach agreement on the division or management of property and financial assets. It is an alternative to litigation that gives both parties greater control over the outcome and is generally faster, less expensive and more private than court proceedings.

Mediation is appropriate for couples who have not yet been able to reach agreement through direct discussion, and for those who want to avoid or minimise formal legal proceedings.

Common topics we help with

Division of property and real estate
Financial assets, superannuation and investments
Separation of jointly-owned business interests
Household contents and personal property
Debts, liabilities and financial obligations
Interim arrangements during the separation process
Property co-ownership disputes outside of separation

Why consider mediation for property matters?

Property disputes that go to court are expensive, time-consuming and can be unpredictable in their outcomes. Mediation offers a structured alternative where both parties retain control over the result and the process remains private.

Even where full agreement is not reached in one session, mediation often significantly narrows the issues, reducing the cost and complexity of any further legal process. Many people find that agreements reached through mediation are also more durable, because both parties were part of reaching them.

What the process looks like

1
Initial enquiry

Contact us to discuss your situation. We assess whether property mediation may be appropriate and explain the process.

2
Preparation

Each party is contacted individually to understand their perspective and ensure both are prepared for a constructive session. Relevant financial information may be gathered in advance.

3
Mediation session

A structured, facilitated session, in person or online, where both parties explore their positions, discuss options and work toward agreement.

4
Agreement and documentation

Where agreement is reached, it is documented. We strongly recommend independent legal review before any agreement is formalised.

Please note: Property mediation does not constitute legal or financial advice. Agreements reached should be reviewed by independent legal and financial advisers before being formalised. This service provides general information only.
