Family Mediation Service The main features of the Family Mediation Service are as follows: a) The FMS is a free professional and
confidential service for couples, married and non-married, who have decided to separate or divorce and who together want to negotiate the
terms of their separation or divorce; b) Mediation helps parties reach an agreement that meets their interests and those of their children; and c) The FMS also
deals with a small number of cases which involve conflict between other members of a family (e.g. parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren on issues such as wills).
