WHERE WE WORK

Family mediation across Plymouth and South Devon

Plymouth is home to our main office, and it’s where much of our family mediation work is based. The South Hams and South Devon are areas we know well, a patchwork of coastal towns, estuary villages, market towns and open countryside, each with its own community and its own family circumstances. We offer family mediation to families throughout the full district, including Kingsbridge, Totnes, Dartmouth, Salcombe, Ivybridge, Modbury, Yealmpton, Thurlestone and the many villages and hamlets throughout the area.

Being based in Plymouth means face to face family mediation is easy to reach, with short travel times, no inflated fees and genuine local knowledge of the area and its family courts. Our accredited mediators understand the practical realities families in this part of Devon and Cornwall face, from rural travel distances to shared childcare across busy market towns. We’re also listed on our locations page alongside the other towns and cities across the UK that we regularly support with online family mediation, so wherever you’re based, help is close by.

Supporting families across the UK from our Plymouth office

As well as our Plymouth office, we offer online family mediation to families in Birmingham, Cardiff, Bristol, Exeter, Hull, Leeds, Liverpool, London, Manchester, Newcastle and Nottingham, wherever you’re based.

Wherever you’re based, you can access the same experienced, accredited family mediation team, whether you meet us in person in Plymouth or online.

The administration team made the entire process seamless, and communication was excellent from start to finish. I am particularly grateful for their ability to facilitate separate shuttle sessions, which ensured a completely safe, neutral, and comfortable environment throughout. I highly recommend their services to any parent navigating family mediation."

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I didn’t think mediation would work but first steps were supportive and understanding of my children’s individual needs and helped us reach a better future. I recommend Sam and the team, we are so grateful for all your help.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Never thought I'd undertake mediation. But I'm glad I chose First Steps. At a stressful time in life, they were professional, supportive, helpful, and very knowledgeable. I never felt talked down to or made to be the bad guy. Would very much recommend them for anyone facing those difficult conversations. A neutral space to talk openly, and freely.

The management are very concerned about the clients experience - had a situation, she found a solution when she really didn’t have to and she made good on what was said to me - let’s hope the rest of the experience is to the same level Thankyou for your professionalism

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If only the whole divorce procedure was as simple as dealing with First Steps. Karen and Samantha at the Plymouth office were absolutely amazing, providing reassurance, empathy, professional advice and genuinely cared about me and the process I was going through. I would whole heartedly recommend First Steps if you have any mediation requirements and add my thanks to them for everything that has been done by them.
