Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from expats considering divorce mediation abroad.

Can I do divorce mediation if I live abroad?

Yes. Our mediation is 100% virtual, so you can participate from anywhere with a stable internet connection. We currently serve expats in France, the UK, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, and South Africa, with more countries coming soon.

Do both spouses need to be in the same country?

No. Since sessions are conducted virtually, each spouse can join from different locations. We regularly work with couples where one partner is abroad and the other is in the US or elsewhere.

What timezone do sessions take place in?

We schedule sessions based on what works for both parties. We offer early morning and late evening slots to accommodate European, African, and other international timezones.

Is the mediation legally binding?

Mediation agreements are not automatically legally binding. However, once you reach an agreement, you can have it reviewed by attorneys in your jurisdiction and filed with the appropriate court to make it enforceable.

How much does international divorce mediation cost?

Our pricing is the same for international clients as domestic: $995 per person for a single 3-hour session. Most couples reach complete agreements in one session. This is significantly more affordable than international divorce proceedings through courts.

What if we have assets in multiple countries?

We can help you discuss and agree on the division of assets regardless of location. For complex international asset situations, we recommend consulting with attorneys familiar with international family law in addition to mediation.

Do you handle custody arrangements for children living abroad?

Yes. We help parents create parenting plans that work across borders, including visitation schedules, communication arrangements, and decision-making frameworks. For international custody matters, we also recommend consulting with a family mediation specialist.
