I’m glad you asked! Yes, there is one mediator whose office is located on the Granite Belt.
Hi! My name is Tess and I own and operate Argyll Mediation. I relocated my home and office from Lismore to the Granite Belt, just South of Stanthorpe, in 2022.
I’m a solicitor and nationally accredited Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner (FDRP), or mediator, as we’re commonly known.
I grew up in Sydney and now that I live rurally, I’d say the most important thing I’ve learned is that everyone knows everyone up here, so confidentiality is super important. I have professional relationships with people I know, but my friends would never know it because I say nothing. I’m like Manuel on Fawlty Towers, “I know nothing!” – when it comes to naming names, I mean!
I know A LOT about mediation, conflict, family law and getting resolution to move on with your life.
I’ve been practicing in mediation since 2018 and I love my work. I know the local family lawyers, and I would be happy to recommend them to you.
Did you know you can engage a family lawyer over the border in Tenterfield? Family Law is federal, so it doesn’t matter where your lawyer is based. I work with clients in the Northern Rivers, Lismore, Ballina, Byron Bay and Kyogle.
I know how confusing and overwhelming separation and divorce can be because I’ve been through it – decades ago when my kids were littleĀ – and now you can get the benefit of my experience and training.
