Perth Mediation Services

"I highly recommend David and Perth Mediation Services as a viable, cost effective alternative to engaging lawyers and getting caught-up in the Family Court system. In my situation we both wanted to negotiate and reach an agreement without using lawyers, we didn't have much money and what we did have we needed to put towards our futures, not into the pockets of lawyers. However, despite being on the same page on what we didn't want, we were unable to agree on what a fair settlement would be. David's approach of working on a fixed fee basis, (about the same as what you'd pay a lawyer just to begin working on your case) gave us the financial reassurance we were looking for, and a simple process of an individual face to face interview, followed by a joint mediation session appealed to us. Having been through the process, and come out the other side in a couple of months with a signed agreement, I am so glad we chose the path of private mediation and found David. His fair, client focused, collaborative approach; coupled with his knowledge of the law and excellent mediation skills, meant we were able to negotiate an agreement both of us could live with. When we got stuck on an issue he helped us find a workable compromise, with David on-board we both felt listened to and understood; we were able to break-through the deadlock situation we were in: now each of us can move on with our lives. Thank you David"

"David from Perth Mediation Services never ceases to amaze me how dedicated and professional he is. Despite being highly qualified and having a law degree, he still continues to up-skill, investing in his professional development so that he can deliver the best possible service to his clients. It's such a pleasure to work in close proximity to this business."

"I would thoroughly recommend David…he was very professional, a great communicator and made a very difficult time easier to get through. He was so understanding about our individual circumstances and had a vast knowledge about the law as it applied to our divorce. I really appreciated the way he kept our privacy, even when making phone calls to us. I can not thank you enough for your help which has allowed James and I to finally move on."

"I can highly recommend David. He has a great ability to help you see through the fog and obtain a fair agreement without the massive overhead costs that a solicitor will charge. David's experience is evident in the way he manages to calm a situation and allow both parties to achieve a somewhat positive outcome, in what is normally, a horrible situation."

"David is a very skilled compassionate and professional mediator. My own experience with David has enabled me to resolve and move forward from an extremely stressful and emotional situation. His understanding of the many aspects of family and property law combied with his straightforward and no nonsense approach ensured both parties were able to reach a fair, amicable and equitable agreement without it becoming a long, expensive and emotional roller coaster ride. Thank you for the outstanding service David."
