    What is a MIAM?

    Mediation Information and Assessment Meetings (MIAMs) are essential for most people who need to take a separation or divorce matter to court.

    We provide MIAMs and are authorised to sign the relevant court application forms to confirm that you have considered or tried mediation.

    Having this separate individual meeting with your mediator before progressing to mediation gives you an opportunity to explain to the mediator the background to your situation and what you feel needs to be sorted out.

    Your mediator will explain how mediation can help you and other alternative dispute options that might be suitable. They will also check the best way of organising your mediation meeting to ensure everyone’s views are heard and understood.

    We provide free mediation through the Government Voucher Scheme.

    Courts now require you to attend a MIAM but, if after your MIAM you feel this isn’t going to be the best way forward for you, that is your choice – mediation is voluntary.
