Family Matters Mediation, Cape Town
Our Offering
Full mediated divorce, from first session to final agreements
Our complete package is designed for uncontested and straightforward divorces where both parties are willing to engage in good faith. It covers everything from your first mediation session through to all required agreements, at a single, transparent flat fee.
Family Matters Mediation assists the parties in recording the agreements they reach, drawing on specialised expertise in family law mediation. We are happy to provide and work from approved templates where appropriate, though no agreement is ever finalised without full client input and understanding.
If a resolution is not reached, no additional fees will be charged for agreements not concluded. If more sessions are needed beyond the four included, further mediation can be scheduled, or we will discuss the most appropriate next steps together.
Clients may cancel in line with our cancellation policy as set out in the Client Registration Form.
