Mediation & agreements
Legal advice for people negotiating a financial settlement, preparing for mediation or formalising an agreement.
We want to find common ground.

Reaching an agreement can give you more say in how you move forward. Clear advice helps you understand the issues, prepare for discussions and assess a proposal.
Daniel can assist with financial negotiations and preparation for mediation. If you have already reached an agreement, we can advise on how to document it appropriately.
You do not need to have everything resolved before you contact us. Let us know what you have agreed on and where you would like some help.
Advice for financial negotiations in Ballarat
Daniel Brownlie assists people in Ballarat with the financial side of separation, including negotiations and preparation for mediation. This service is advice for you as a party to the dispute; it is not an offer to act as the independent mediator.
Prepare for a useful discussion
We can help you understand the financial issues, organise the information needed, consider a proposal and identify what remains unresolved. Tell us if a mediation has been arranged or there is a date by which you need to respond.
Turn an agreement into a clear next step
If you have reached an agreement, Daniel can review what has been proposed and advise on documenting it appropriately. You can also contact us while discussions are still underway. We will explain the work and costs before you decide to proceed.
