Congratulations Michella Francis!
Many of you will know Michella as one of our "go-to" Mediators for workplace Mediation, and we are pleased to announce that Michella is now registered as a Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner and has extended her mediation practice into Family Law.
Michella explains the reasons she decided to branch into family law:-
“Having dealt with conflict mediation in workplaces for a while, I decided to extend by expertise into Family Law by obtaining qualifications as a family Dispute Resolution Practitioner. Due to the unfortunate reality of one in three marriages breaking down, I feel privileged to be able to assist parties making decisions in the best interests of their children through this life-changing event.
When going through an emotional turmoil it can often be difficult for parties to see a clear picture of and when asking them what they think will happen if their matter goes to court, each party often thinks that decisions will be made to their advantage. Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that often decisions are going to be made in court which none of the parties will completely agree with, and furthermore, have very little control of, going forward.
My opinion is that Mediation is an incredibly important piece of the puzzle when it comes to conflict resolution, which is the reason for my true passion in this field.”
We are delighted to see Michella extending her expertise to the Family arena, and we are lucky to have her as part of our panel here at Brisbane Mediation.
