Divorce Mediation Randburg – Affordable, Professional Family Law Solutions

Welcome to Divorce Mediation Randburg. My name is Nicki Macartney, an admitted attorney since 2002 and a qualified divorce and family mediator. I help couples navigate separation and divorce in a calmer, more constructive way, without the high conflict and unnecessary trauma often caused by traditional litigation.

If you are looking for a divorce attorney who also offers professional mediation services, you have come to the right place. My goal is to help you, your spouse, and your children transition with dignity, care, and as little emotional damage as possible.

Why Choose Divorce Mediation?

Divorce is never easy, but mediation offers an affordable alternative to litigation. Instead of escalating conflict, mediation helps couples:

  • Reach mutually acceptable agreements,
  • Save on legal costs,
  • Protect children from unnecessary emotional harm, and
  • Move forward with a sustainable co-parenting framework.

I am committed to offering affordable divorce mediation services in Randburg as well as virtually anywhere in South Africa while focusing on the best interests of your family.

Full Legal & Mediation Services

As both a family law attorney and mediator, I offer a complete divorce service from start to finish. You will only deal with one professional throughout:

  • Initial mediation sessions,
  • Drafting of the divorce settlement agreement,
  • Representation in court on your final divorce date.

This all-in-one approach ensures continuity, reduces stress, and saves time – making me one of the few divorce lawyers in Randburg able to combine legal expertise with mediation skills.

Parenting Plans – Children’s Act South Africa

For both divorcing and unmarried parents, a parenting plan is essential. In terms of the Children’s Act (South Africa), co-holders of parental rights must attempt to resolve disputes through a parenting plan before approaching the court.

A well-structured parenting plan will:

  • Set out each parent’s rights and responsibilities,
  • Provide clarity on schooling, medical care, and living arrangements,
  • Anticipate and resolve potential disputes before they escalate.

Parenting plans can be:

  • Registered with the Family Advocate’s Office,
  • Made a court order together with a divorce settlement,
  • Compiled even if the parents are not married.

This process ensures that children remain the central focus and that both parents’ duties are clearly defined and enforceable.

Divorce Litigation Services
