Dear reader,

The objective of this brochure is to provide information about family mediation. Family mediation is always voluntary, and it may be used by all family members.

Every family has its problems

Two or more people living together is a source of joy, but it also includes some challenges. A family is burdened by a variety of stressful factors such as work, housing, and child day care arrangements. The differences in the life stories of the spouses or cohabiting partners require reconciliation. Differences and disagreements are a part of life.

Every family faces its own problems, whether it is a first or a second marriage, a cohabiting partnership, a single-parent family or some other form of living together. That is why the important issue is not whether problems exist, but how you manage to solve them.
