Why Choose lakes Mediation Sunderland Over Court?

Why Mediation Is Needed

The basic needs of a child are to be fulfilled through the financial support and it is equally important that the child’s entertainment is funded equally by both parents. Parents must take an interest in the life of the child and at least one must be there to take an active part in taking his care.

Many parents understand the importance of dividing business assets among them and many of them don’t. The matter can be very complicated and personal because the situation here is to divide the assets of the business which can be personal to a parent as well.

Business Mediation Avoid Court

The Lakes Family mediators can solve such a complicated matter. Dividing the value of assets can be very complicated as every fact must be taken into consideration for example depreciation, personally owned assets, disputes over land and other disputes etc.

Many business owners do not feel comfortable discussing all these details in a public forum as this matter is very personal and this information must kept confidential. At Lakes Mediation, we understand that this is your livelihood and keep all business matters private and confidential.

If the parents decide to carry on the business as it is the only source of income to them, and they cannot dissolve it and sell the assets, the profits have to be divided and equal contributions from both parents must be paid to the child. It is not recommended to involve the court into the matter as there are a lot of formalities to be fulfilled and your efforts will be wasted.

Instead, a mediator is your best option as they can help you reach decisions about your business in a friendly environment so that all the information is communicated thoroughly and they can work upon it.
