Bath Family Mediation is the trading name of Out of Court Ltd., a company formed in 1997
when four like-minded Bath family solicitors got together to offer people in Bath and the surrounding area
a publicly funded family mediation service.

The solicitors were all partners in three separate Bath firms who had trained as family mediators, having been drawn to family mediation as a more civilised and cost effective method of resolving issues arising from relationship breakdown than pursuing claims through the courts.

Following the formation of the company it achieved formal recognition from the Legal Aid Board,
now The Legal Services Commission.

This enables it to grant qualifying persons public funding (legal aid) for family mediation.

It also offers private service to persons who do not qualify for public funding.

Since its formation, Bath Family Mediation has helped literally hundreds of couples to deal with the problems of relationship breakdown.

The company has expanded and has been joined by a fifth mediator.
Profiles of the mediators can be found on the "About us" page.
