Family Mediation in Torrevieja<\/h1><\/div><\/div>\n\n
<\/div><\/div>\n\n

There are situations where going to court is not the best option. Not because it is difficult, but because a judge makes decisions about your life without knowing it, and what is ordered does not always fit what you actually need. <\/p>\n

Family mediation is the alternative when both parties want to reach an agreement, but communication between them has broken down.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Family Mediator in Torrevieja<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n
<\/div><\/div>\n\n

I am an accredited family mediator, recognised by the Ministry of Justice, as well as a specialist family lawyer.
That means I can accompany you through the mediation process and, once an agreement is reached, formalise it with full legal guarantees. <\/p>\n

You do not need two separate professionals.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Mediation in Separation and Divorce<\/h3><\/div><\/div>\n\n

Custody, contact, use of the family home, financial support: everything a judge would otherwise decide can be resolved between you, with a mediator who keeps the conversation structured and constructive.
The resulting agreement carries the same legal weight as a court order once it is submitted to the court or set out in a notarial deed.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Mediation When a Court Order is Not Working<\/h3><\/div><\/div>\n\n

A judicial ruling on custody or contact that generates conflict week after week is not resolved by returning to court every time. Mediation makes it possible to review and adjust arrangements when circumstances have changed and both parties are willing. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Mediation Without Prior Court Proceedings<\/h3><\/div><\/div>\n\n

You do not need to be in the middle of a divorce to benefit from mediation. Unmarried couples who want to regulate their situation without going to court, or families who need to make joint decisions but communication has broken down, can also use the process. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Difference between mediating and litigating<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n
<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Court proceedings give you a ruling. Mediation gives you an agreement that you and the other party have built together, shaped around the specifics of your situation, and with full legal validity. <\/p>\n

What mediation does not do: it is not couples therapy, it does not require anyone to concede what they are not willing to concede, and it does not work if one party is not genuinely willing to participate. If I conclude that a case is not suitable for mediation, I will say so in the first session. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Accredited Family Mediator<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n
<\/div><\/div>\n\n

I am bar member n\u00ba 1595 of the Ilustre Colegio de Abogados de Orihuela and a member of the Spanish Association of Family Lawyers. I hold a qualification in Family Mediation accredited by the Ministry of Justice, and have spent over 20 years working on family cases in Torrevieja and the Vega Baja. <\/p>\n

If in the first session I conclude that the case is not suitable for mediation, I say so plainly. And if it is, I take care of everything: the process itself and the formalisation of the agreement. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
