Christopher Sandham, partner and head of Family Law at Hartley & Worstenholme Solicitors has qualified as an accredited mediator.
Commenting on the development, Christopher Sandham said, “I am obviously personally pleased to have obtained my qualification as a mediator, but am even more delighted that Hartley & Worstenholme can now offer mediation to clients, as mediation is something I firmly believe in.”
Christopher further advises that his mediation services can be provided both in the capacity of independent mediator or alternatively as a legal representative of a client in a mediation. The benefits of mediation include, but are not limited to flexibility, speed, relative cost saving and the fact that the parties are not bound to accept a mediators suggestions, so really they have little to lose and a lot to gain from it.
Christopher brings a wealth of experience in all aspects of family law, specialising in financial issues arising from divorce or separation. He has particular expertise in living together and pre-nuptial agreements. As a Resolution-trained Collaborative Lawyer he aims to resolve family disputes without going to court wherever possible. He is a Member of the Law Society’s Advanced Family Law Panel and a Resolution Accredited Specialist.
