What is the Best Way to Settle a Family Dispute?

There are various ways to go about it. At Robertsons Solicitors, our family law solicitors in Cardiff, will look at your situation before giving advice, but here are a few tried and trusted methods:

  • Sit around the kitchen table – This is the least invasive way to settle a dispute. The parties come together and talk things out. It is essential, though, to put what you decide in writing and ensure everyone understands the agreement’s legal implications. Talk to one of our family law solicitors if you are unsure.
  • Family therapy – A professional counsellor can help your family talk and resolve a dispute. But, again, make sure you cover all the legal bases.
  • Mediation or arbitration – A mediator is a neutral person with the skills to help manage and facilitate discussions. Arbitration is more formal and is a substitute for the court system. An arbitrator acts like a judge and his decision about your dispute will be binding. Our experienced team can help support and represent you through such a process.
  • Getting a family solicitor to help – One can use the collaborative process where the parties to the dispute, together with their solicitors, have round-table meetings to address issues one by one. A solicitor can also negotiate a settlement on your behalf.
  • Going to court – Sometimes going to court can be the only option to settle a dispute. Robertsons Solicitors can help make this process as pain-free as possible.   

How Do I Choose the Right Family Law Solicitor?

Choosing the right solicitor involves finding someone with experience relevant to your case and with whom you feel comfortable. At Robertsons, our family law solicitors in Cardiff have a strong track record of successfully managing complex cases, particularly those involving children and international elements. Transparency regarding costs and case management is also crucial. Contact us today for a consultation and to see how we can help you.

There are several methods to settle a family dispute. These include informal discussions around the kitchen table, family therapy, mediation or arbitration, seeking help from a solicitor through the collaborative process, and, if necessary, going to court.

The best family law solicitor for you is someone you feel comfortable with and who has experience handling your specific type of case. It's also important to get a reasonable cost estimate and understand how your case will be managed. Our team at Robertsons includes divorce experts and professionals experienced in complex cases involving children.

When preparing for family dispute resolution, it's essential to consider all legal implications, have a clear understanding of your goals, and ensure any agreements are put in writing. Consulting with a family law solicitor can provide clarity and ensure all legal bases are covered.

The collaborative process involves the parties to the dispute and their solicitors having round-table meetings to address issues one by one. It aims to reach a settlement without going to court, with solicitors helping negotiate and facilitate discussions.

Going to court is sometimes necessary when other methods of dispute resolution fail or are not suitable. Our solicitors at Robertsons can guide you through the court process, making it as pain-free as possible.
