Led by Mr. Gavin Mather, a certified family law mediator and Family Law Dispute Resolution Professional, our team is committed to guiding clients through various conflicts with compassion and professionalism. We believe in the power of mediation to not only resolve disputes but to preserve relationships and promote lasting understanding.

Mediation empowers individuals to maintain control over the outcome of their disputes.

How We Can Help

Divorce Mediation

Divorce can be one of life’s most stressful experiences, but mediation offers a pathway to a more amicable separation. Our divorce mediation services focus on facilitating constructive dialogue between spouses to resolve issues such as asset division, spousal support, and parenting arrangements. By choosing mediation, couples can avoid the adversarial nature of court proceedings, leading to more personalized and mutually satisfactory outcomes.

Family Law Mediation

Family dynamics are complex, and disputes can arise that affect the well-being of all involved. Our family law mediation services address a variety of issues, including child custody and access, support payments, and adoption matters. We strive to create a collaborative environment where family members can openly discuss their concerns and work together to develop solutions that prioritize the best interests of the children and maintain familial harmony.

Mediation Coaching

For individuals preparing to engage in mediation, our mediation coaching services provide valuable guidance and support. We help clients understand the mediation process, clarify their goals, and develop effective communication strategies. This preparation empowers clients to participate confidently and effectively in mediation sessions, increasing the likelihood of achieving favorable outcomes.

Alternative Dispute Resolution – ADR

Beyond traditional mediation, we offer a range of alternative dispute resolution services tailored to meet the specific needs of our clients. Alternative Dispute Resolution encompasses various methods, including arbitration and negotiation, designed to resolve conflicts efficiently and privately. Our expertise in Alternative Dispute Resolution allows us to assist clients in selecting the most appropriate approach for their situation, ensuring a resolution process that aligns with their objectives and values.

Estate Mediation

Disputes over estates can be particularly sensitive, often involving close family members and significant emotional stakes. Our estate mediation services aim to resolve conflicts related to wills, trusts, and inheritance matters amicably. By facilitating discussions that honor the intentions of the deceased and the interests of the beneficiaries, we help families navigate these disputes with dignity and respect, preserving relationships and family legacies.

Property Division Mediation

The division of property, whether due to divorce or the dissolution of a business partnership, requires careful consideration and negotiation. Our property division mediation services assist parties in identifying and valuing assets, discussing equitable distribution, and reaching agreements that reflect each party’s contributions and needs. This collaborative approach minimizes conflict and promotes fair settlements without the need for protracted litigation.

Real Estate Dispute Resolution

Real estate transactions can sometimes lead to disputes between buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, or neighboring property owners. Our real estate dispute resolution services address issues such as contract disagreements, boundary disputes, and landlord-tenant conflicts. By facilitating open communication and exploring creative solutions, we help parties resolve their disputes efficiently, preserving business relationships and preventing costly legal battles.

Constructive, Confidential, and Cost-effective Mediation Services

At Mather and Company, our commitment to excellence in mediation reflects our dedication to helping clients navigate conflicts with integrity and care. By choosing mediation, individuals and families can achieve resolutions that are not only legally sound but also aligned with their personal values and long-term well-being.

I send clients to Gavin all the time and have only heard five star reviews. He is exactly what you need in a lawyer/mediator. Would recommend him and his amazing team to my closest relatives, which I think says something about his character.
