About Us

MSZ Mediation is dedicated to providing professional, confidential mediation services, specialising in family law. By focusing on Family Dispute Resolution, we offer a less stressful and cost-effective alternative to litigation for both parenting and property disputes. Our child-centred, non-judgemental approach helps parents navigate issues such as parenting plans, child access, and property settlements, with an emphasis on harmony and practical outcomes. Led by Michelle Zelig, an Accredited Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner registered with the Attorney-General's Department and authorised to issue S60(i) certificates, MSZ Mediation has successfully mediated over 1,000 disputes across Melbourne and Sydney. We offer tailored in-person and online mediation sessions to accommodate busy schedules and diverse needs. Our services extend beyond family disputes to cover alternative dispute resolution in cases involving sibling disagreements, wills and estates, elder matters, workplace conflicts, business partner issues, and neighbourhood disputes. Michelle's expertise and impartial guidance assist parties in reaching workable agreements, and she encourages clients to seek independent legal and financial advice to formalise these terms. Our services facilitate the creation of voluntary parenting plans, outlining day-to-day responsibilities and practical details to ensure they are workable for all parties involved. While not legally enforceable, these agreements can be transformed into consent orders for legal binding. We also assist with property settlements, highlighting the importance of reaching agreements within specific timelines post-divorce. For clients wishing to include legal counsel during mediation, we offer legally assisted sessions, particularly beneficial for property and financial matters. In modern family dynamics involving blended families, mediation helps create a harmonious environment. When sibling disputes arise, impartial mediation can aid in resolving conflicts, especially those concerning the care of elderly relatives. Similarly, MSZ Mediation supports families in navigating the complexities of will and estate disputes, striving to reach amicable resolutions during challenging times.
