Bruce Thiele, is a family law barrister with over a decade of experience.
A significant proportion of Bruce's practice involves mediating family law disputes as an AIFLAM approved mediator and arbitrator as well as being a registered Family Law Dispute Resolution Practitioner.
As well as offering mediation services to assist resolve disputes, we will also assist parties on an interim basis.
Interim arrangements with a planned review in 3 months can offer better outcomes for parents whilst they are otherwise coming to terms with the breakdown of their relationship.
As a neutral mediator we help clients settle their disputes. Mediation is about helping clients find their own result.
Mediators may provide guidance about possible court outcomes and help clients understand that a compromise before court can be mutally benefical for all parties.
If mediation or other forms of negotiation fail and the cost and delay in obtaining a Court decision are daunting - have you considered arbitration?
As an AIFLAM registered family law arbitrator we can provide an arbitral award where the parties wish to privately arbitrate their dispute or have requested the Court to refer their dispute to arbitration.
After extensive debate in the Senate, the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia Bill 2019 and the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Consequential Amendments and Transitional Provisions) Bill 2019 were passed with some minor amendments.
On Thursday I will be speaking at a FLPA lunchtime webinar about the world of online dispute resolution (ODR) that has seemingly been thrust upon us by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Now is the time for innovation – a time to repurpose our service to clients.
