Tess is an experienced family law solicitor to assist you in coming to agreements about your financial and property settlement, and your parenting plan. Mediation with Argyll combines guidance from Tess with her skills of supporting people experiencing distress and her organisational and legal skills, working in tandem with your solicitor or without, to provide a seamless service post separation.
A financial / property settlement paves the way to final settlement post separation. After full and frank financial disclosure, we calculate the Net Asset Pool, consider financial and non-financial contributions, and future needs, before negotiating a just and equitable agreement.
Parenting plans are less formal than parenting orders and easier to change when and of you need to. The court won't enforce them, though. an agreed written plan that states with whom the children will primarily live, a schedule for visiting with the other parent, who will make major decisions regarding the children’s lives, and other important issues.
Tess will contact the other parent BEFORE we do the pre-mediation session. This speeds up the process, limits stress and keeps the ball rolling in a timely way. Don't spend time and money doing pre-mediation if the other parent isn't going to agree to attend mediation!

Throughout my our mediation process Tess was professional, patient and worked hard to deliver an outcome. Highly recommended.
The outcome Tess achieved for me inside of a week, last time took me over six months! Great, fast and effective service. Thanks Tess.
Tess is a very nice lady but professional and makes everyone feel comfortable highly recommended.
We sought the expertise of Tess to help us with financial mediation and I cannot recommend Tess highly enough. She was welcoming, honest, generous and took the time to explain the process we were going through so that we understood completely which helped put us at ease.
Tess provided valuable insight and it was obvious her only agenda was to help us come to an agreement.
If you have to do mediation, do it with the help of someone wonderful and experienced like Tess.
Tess was easy to work with. She is understanding and works for positive outcomes. A real human being. Thanks Tess.
I was very impressed with Tess from Argyll. In the two hours I met with her, she was able to familiarise herself with the content of our (a small residential community) issues, helped us understand those issues of primary importance and provided a structural framework for moving forward. We were all very satisfied with her work.
Tess helped my ex wife and I sort out our financial settlement. She handled the mediation session well and an agreeable outcome was achieved. I’d recommend Tess to anyone who needs mediation.
Excellent work thanks Tess. One of the most competent and professional services that I have experienced. A big help through some hard times. Well done. Much appreciated.
