Result ADR

Family mediation

Family matters often involve deep emotions such as sadness, misunderstanding, and frustration. At Result ADR Family Affairs, we understand that resolving conflicts is not just about finding a solution—it’s also about caring for family relationships. You don’t choose your family, but you are still connected. While conflicts may strain these bonds, they never truly disappear. This makes family conflicts different from business disputes, and managing them properly is crucial, as the way families handle conflict can affect multiple generations.

What is family mediation?

Family mediation helps resolve conflicts within families or family businesses with the guidance of a neutral mediator. The mediator facilitates constructive conversations and supports all parties in reaching sustainable agreements.

Mediation can be applied in many situations, including:

  • Conflicts between parents and children (e.g., care for aging parents)

  • (Marital) separations

  • Inheritance disputes

  • Tensions within family businesses or around family estates

We also facilitate preventive family conversations to reduce the risk of future conflicts.

The Role of a Mediator in a Family Conflict

At Result ADR, our MfN-registered family mediators combine expertise in conflict resolution with deep knowledge of family dynamics, intergenerational relationships, and legal frameworks.

The mediator is always impartial and creates a safe environment where everyone can share their story. By addressing emotions, interests, and needs, the mediator fosters understanding and cooperation. Each approach is tailored to the specific context of the family—whether it involves a divorce, inheritance issue, or tensions within a family business.

How Does Family Mediation Work?

Family mediation is flexible and adapts to the needs of those involved. The mediator guides the process, focusing on restoring communication and finding mutually acceptable solutions.

Initial Conversations


The mediator meets individually with all parties to understand their perspectives and priorities. This creates a safe space where everyone feels heard. Based on these conversations, a plan is proposed for the next steps, including joint sessions, additional individual meetings, or a tailored approach combining mediation and facilitated dialogue.

Follow-up Sessions


Joint sessions encourage constructive dialogue. The mediator ensures discussions remain respectful, provides tools for open communication, and shares relevant information needed for informed decisions.

Solution Phase


The mediator helps parties reach concrete agreements covering communication, responsibilities, practical arrangements (e.g., visitation schedules, roles in a family business, inheritance settlements), or other relevant matters. Solutions are designed to respect the needs and wishes of all involved.

Implementation and Completion


Agreements are documented clearly and practically, enabling families to move forward positively. The mediator ensures the process supports long-term understanding and cooperation.

The Outcome of Family Mediation

Family conflicts can be emotionally heavy. Mediation helps reopen communication, creating clarity, mutual understanding, and a shared path forward. In 90% of cases, families reach a solution together under the guidance of Result ADR. Our mediators provide customized support and ensure agreements are sustainable and respectful of everyone’s needs.
