The MIAMS Wallasey mediator works out in his way and gives the effort to resolve the differences. When there is no agreement, then appointing a mediator is the right and a perfect approach to solving the issue as mediation allows both the parties to say their points. Overall, the entire process of negotiation works faster.
The entire mediation negotiation process has several stages. Initially, the mediator talks with respective parties separately collect all the necessary information, assess them and then agrees mediation can proceed.
This is called a MIAMS mediation assessment meeting.
Then there remains two options – either a face to face mediation (often called as direct mediation also) or shuttle mediation (indirect).
Based on the nature of both parties, this is decided whether face to face or shuttle mediation will be adopted.
In extreme cases where regular mediation might lead to discourse, upset , abuse or something else, shuttle mediation is the only choice as that family mediation is hard to carry forward.
The Mediator will be able to discuss your specific needs and advise if shuttle mediation is the best solution for your situation and how it will work.
Shuttle mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution and a good option to ensure that both parties have the time and space to consider proposals carefully. This structured approach can lead to more thoughtful and productive negotiations, ultimately resulting in a higher rate of successful resolutions.
If there has been violence and discourse, violence or too emotion is present it can prevent successful mediation, in this case shuttle mediation is a form of mediation that offers a solution.
In this case, both parties will not see each other in online mediation, there will be mediator is responsible for communicating between both the parties in separate online calls.
Shuttle mediation offers a unique approach to conflict resolution that can be especially effective in situations where direct interaction is counterproductive or unsafe. By providing a controlled and supportive environment, it helps parties work towards a resolution that respects their needs and concerns.
Shuttle mediation is the best way to participate in Wallasey mediation without intimidation from an ex partner.
MIAMS Wallasey aims to provide you with a mutually acceptable solution that creates a safe space for everyone involved in the process.

Family’s are deeply affected by divorce or separation, especially when there are children in the family. Often these painful situations can be helped with the supportof a mediator who will hold a Mediation Information Assessment Meeting or MIAM. A MIAM can guide communication and set the tone for the goals of mediation.
When attending a court proceeding on the matter, the family will need to present an FM1 (Family Mediation 1 form) which confirms that a MIAM has been held.
As of April 2014, significant changes were made to the judicial system regarding separation and divorces, particularly where children were involved. These changes ensure that the welfare of the children is paramount, with minimal impact on the children and as little negativity as possible. One of the major changes was a requirement for a mediation session or MIAM to be attended before any court proceedings to do with financial or custody matters (hence the need for a FM1 to be produced).
If the split is acrimonious and both parties find it difficult to be in the same room, as would happen with face to face mediation, it is possible to ask for shuttle mediation.
Shuttle sessions happen when the two parties are seated in separate rooms either virtually or physically and the mediator shuttles between the two, discussing issues and offering solutions.
Shuttle mediation is often a good solution with distance between the parties allowing for rational and reasoned thinking.
MIAMS Wallasey Mediators can also help with will disputes: resolving issues between and coming to an acceptable compromise to the conflict that arises as a result of separation.
