Family Mediation

If I have difficulty communicating with my spouse, can I accept family mediation services unilaterally?


Only if both parties agree to separate/divorce and are willing to attend the mediation interview together can they receive family mediation services. The parties need to inform the other party of their intention to separate/divorce and have contacted our Centre (you can provide the other party with service information such as leaflets or the website of the Mediation Centre www.mediationcentrehk.org). If the other party does not object, our Centre can contact him/her and invite him/her to accept this service. This can make the other party more mentally prepared, and may be more willing to accept family mediation services.
