Here at Low Cost Mediation, we work to serve you, by facilitating a process that allows parties to resolve their differences in an effective and responsible manner, enabling them to reach their own agreement, which is often more efficient and cost-effective than going down the legal process or court proceedings.
Mediation is a process through which parties work together with the assistance of a neutral third party, trained in the technique of mediation, to arrive at a mutually acceptable agreement with regard to their conflict or dispute.
This method can also be a quicker process than going to court, and it can help the parties to better understand and appreciate each other’s perspective. The purpose of mediation is to settle disputes before they get out of hand and cause more damage.
This process saves money, time, and allows a workable relationship, whereas the court procedure is time consuming, expensive, and places the parties in adversarial positions, which can lead to more tension, prolonged conflict and worsen the situation.
Whether it is a separation, breakup or divorce, or where both parties cannot agree on an outcome, perhaps a financial, business or commercial conflict, or with regards to children matters, or being unable to agree on an effective parenting plan, or simply a falling out between neighbours, estranged or extended families, we are ultimately here to help to resolve matters.
Mediation is suitable for resolving all sorts of disagreements, even if they are not legal matters. Our fees are kept low to ensure you can reach an agreement without having to go through a costly financial process, and unlike a court hearing, mediation is confidential, so if you value privacy and want to prevent a situation from escalating further and getting out of control, mediation is an ideal solution.
Mediation offers a quicker, cost-effective alternative to traditional legal routes. Whether you're an individual or a business, you can resolve your disputes without the heavy financial burden and stress of court proceedings.
At Low-Cost Mediation, we prioritize amicable solutions with minimal conflict. By involving a neutral third-party mediator, we help you find common ground before relationships or business ventures are damaged beyond repair.
Mediation is a streamlined, less formal process, which means lower costs and quicker resolutions. Unlike legal cases that may not qualify for Legal Aid, mediation provides an affordable alternative that often only requires a few sessions to resolve the issue at hand.

Mediation helps people settle disputes by using an impartial third party to act as a ‘go between’ and help facilitate a compromise. It’s a voluntary process, completely confidential and usually quicker and much cheaper than instructing solicitors, legal professionals and letting a court decide the outcome of the case.
Low-Cost Mediation offers many advantages over civil litigation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution (ADR).
It can often be the preferred choice for individuals and businesses seeking a faster, more cost-effective, and less adversarial way to resolve disputes.
We offer Mediation in areas of family, civil, commercial and other dispute in the following areas:
We can help to resolve disputes without breaking the bank, which for both individuals & businesses can be quicker, cheaper and less stressful than the legal route.
Here at Low-Cost Mediation, we believe in the power of resolving issues amicably and with as little conflict and struggle as possible.
This is a positive and forward-thinking way of resolving disputes using a neutral third-party unknown to both parties. Each party should be encouraged to use mediation as a prerequisite to any legal process, where possible, before costs start to escalate and the relationship—whether marriage, divorce, financial, commercial, civil, or otherwise—is destroyed forever.
Mediation is much less formal than going to court and uses a more efficient process, therefore the cost is lower. For many types of legal cases, Legal Aid is not available, so mediation is a good alternative to resolving matters without a legal bill.
Most times, only one to three sessions are needed to reach an agreement, and we will always work to ensure cost can be kept to a minimum.
Our low-cost mediation takes place online, making it convenient for everyone, no matter where you are.
We will aim to resolve your issues as quickly as possible so you don’t incur any unnecessary delays or a protracted lengthy process.
Where we are unable to get to an agreement, we will ask to end the mediation between the parties, so that we do not incur any unnecessary costs for you.
Mediations typically required a minimum of 2-3 hours, involving 30 - 45 minutes with each party to understand each other’s concerns, followed by a joint session lasting approx 45 mins – 1 hour, so that we can work to agree on getting to a resolution.
We allow for approx 30-45 minutes of admin time for planning, liaising with the parties, and arranging the mediation sessions.
Approx 30-45 minutes of admin time is needed for these sessions to ensure we facilitate the sessions effectively.
Where more time is needed, we will advise in advance and bill at a hours rate thereafter.
Should you require separate sessions, we will require an initial 30 - 45 minutes with each party to gather an understanding of each other’s issues.
A further 30 - 45 minutes with each party is needed to relay back each parties concerns, with an attempt to come to an agreement of items.
Separate sessions require more time and effort as we are required to go back and forth with both party independently, and need to factored in more sessions, that if held jointly.
We allow for approx 30-45 minutes of admin time for planning, liaising with both parties and arranging the mediation sessions.
These sessions would typically take 3-4 hours as a minimum.
Where more time is needed, we will advise in advance and bill at a hours rate thereafter.
Following your mediation session(s) we can work to document some key aspect that you both are able to be agree on, which you can formalise if required.
Most of our sessions are held online, so you will need access to a computer or an electronic device such as a smartphone or tablet. Sessions can be conducted via Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or other Cloud Video Platforms (CVP) as needed. You may choose to have your video on or off; that decision is entirely up to you. You do not need to see the other party if you prefer not to.
Online mediation is also highly effective for national and international disputes, where one or more parties are located in different areas, or in high-conflict situations where one or both parties are reluctant to meet in person. Online sessions can be just as effective as face-to-face mediations, but at a fraction of the cost, as there is no need for travel or booking a mediation venue.
Face-to-face sessions can be arranged if necessary, but please be aware that additional costs for room booking, travel, and other expenses will apply.
The mediation process does not bind the parties to reach a settlement. A settlement can only be achieved when both parties are willing to come to an understanding and, if necessary, make compromises. The mediator will not make any binding decisions if the parties do not wish to agree on a settlement.
If an agreement is not reached by the end of the mediation session, the matter will simply move to the next stage of legal proceedings, which you will need to handle independently.
However, if the parties do reach a settlement, the terms of the agreement will be documented. This document can then be used in collaboration with your chosen legal representative to formalize the settlement.
Mediation is unlikely to work unless all parties genuinely wish to reach agreement, or if one party has little incentive to enter into the process.
Mediation is confidential - only the parties will know what was discussed. Sessons are held without prejudice, and anything discussed in mediation cannot be used in legal proceedings.
The mediator is completely impartial and acts as a facilitator. They have no vested interest in the outcome.
You do not have to reach an agreement - if mediation does not work, you can still explore other options.
Mediation is voluntary - if both parties do not agree to participate, then mediation will not be possible.
If you do reach an agreement, this can be formalised in a written document or contract at the end of the meeting at an extra cost.
The aim of mediation is to avoid direct confrontation between the parties as each party deals only with the mediator until an agreement is reached.
We do not undertake reserved legal work as set out in s.12 Legal Services Act 2007.
We do not undertake Legal Aid work, or court specific required activities, such as MIAM services.
