Northern Ontario Mediation

If you’re going through a separation or divorce in Northern Ontario, or facing a family law dispute, mediation may offer a more affordable, private, and cooperative path forward. Unlike court, mediation gives you the opportunity to resolve issues with less stress in a supported environment.

Whether you live in Sudbury, Thunder Bay, North Bay, Timmins, Sault Ste. Marie, or any of the surrounding communities, working with an experienced Northern Ontario mediation lawyer can help you protect your rights and move forward—entirely online.

We offer fully virtual mediation services, so you can get the support you need without leaving your home.


What Is Family Mediation?

Family mediation is a voluntary, confidential process where a neutral family mediator helps you and your former partner resolve key legal issues, including:

  • Parenting time and decision-making (custody)

  • Child and spousal support

  • Property division

  • Separation agreements

A Northern Ontario family mediator facilitates calm and productive discussions, helping both parties reach a fair resolution outside of the courtroom.


Why Choose Mediation in Northern Ontario?

Families across Northern Ontario often face challenges like:

  • Limited court access in smaller communities

  • Long travel distances for court dates

  • Fewer in-person legal services

That’s why virtual family mediation is becoming the preferred choice for many separating couples in the region.

Convenient and Accessible

  • Mediate from anywhere in Northern Ontario using secure online tools

  • No need to travel or miss work

  • Ideal for clients in remote or rural areas

Maintain Control Over Outcomes

  • You and your former partner make the decisions—not a judge

  • More flexible and personalized than court

Cost-Conscious and Confidential

  • Often less expensive than full litigation


Is Mediation Right for You?

Mediation may be a great fit if:

  • You’re open to respectful negotiation

  • You want to avoid the expense and delay of court

  • There’s no history of abuse, coercion, or power imbalance
