I was referred to Mediation for Families by a friend in Townsville and couldn’t be happier with the service. From the first contact, it was clear they genuinely care about helping families find workable solutions. The mediator’s calm and balanced approach made a stressful parenting dispute much easier to manage. I highly recommend them to anyone in North Queensland needing mediation support.
What stood out to me most was how strongly the mediator focused on my children’s wellbeing. Every discussion was centred on what would work best for them, and that made a huge difference. The parenting arrangements we reached are practical and realistic, and both parties feel heard. A very professional and compassionate team.
Having worked with mediators previously for business matters, I can confidently say Mediation for Families is exceptional. They were upfront about costs and timeframes and kept me informed throughout the entire process. I never felt like just another case — their empathy and professionalism really set them apart here in Townsville.
At the start of my separation, I felt completely lost and unsure where to turn. Mediation for Families supported me through property and parenting matters with patience and care. They helped me regain confidence during a very challenging time and move forward with clarity. I’m incredibly thankful for their knowledge, warmth, and guidance.
