Is Mediation Right for Me?

Mediation offers a cost-effective and efficient alternative to traditional legal disputes, aiming to resolve conflicts through collaborative dialogue. It provides a structured environment where both parties can voice their concerns and work towards a mutually acceptable resolution with the guidance of a neutral mediator. This process often results in faster outcomes and can preserve relationships by focusing on common ground rather than escalating disagreements. Mediation is suitable for a wide range of disputes, from family issues to business conflicts, and can be a valuable tool for those seeking a less adversarial approach to problem-solving.

Could I be in a de facto relationship without realising it?

It’s possible to be in a de facto relationship without realising it, and Caldwell Martin Cox provides clarity on this often-overlooked aspect of family law. We help you understand the criteria that define a de facto relationship and how it may impact your legal rights and responsibilities. By recognising these factors, you can ensure that your personal and financial matters are properly addressed and managed.

What is coercive and controlling behaviour?

Understanding coercive and controlling behaviour is crucial for addressing and preventing abuse. At Caldwell Martin Cox, we provide clarity on these manipulative tactics that undermine an individual’s autonomy and safety. Recognising the signs and implications of such behaviour is essential for effective legal intervention and support, helping to protect and empower those affected by these harmful practices.
