Most people do not bring a lawyer to mediation, as one of the main benefits of mediation is that it is a ‘non-legal’ process. It is also very expensive to have your lawyer present for the whole mediation!
However there are some circumstances when having your lawyer present will make the process more productive.
Essentially the decision is up to you, and we regularly mediate both with and without lawyers being present. The only thing we ask is that enough notice is given so that each of you is aware that a lawyer will be present.
