Choosing Non Court Dispute Resolution (NCDR) often starts with having the right mindset.

Clients may initially see court proceedings as the natural route when dealing with a family dispute, but there are other options available.

Sarah Manning, our Head of NCDR, encourages clients to remain open to different approaches so they can understand their choices and make an informed decision.

A key part of the process is also looking ahead.

Rather than focusing on past behaviour or conflict, NCDR can help families consider practical arrangements for the future and what will work best for their children.

By keeping the focus on finding a fair outcome, NCDR can give clients greater control over decisions that will affect their family moving forward.
