Our signature approach works by helping each person make progress independently. This method supports thoughtful decisions and less emotional strain throughout the process.
Divorce mediation support for families in Maple Ridge
Separation is hard enough without a drawn-out legal battle. If you and your spouse want to stay in control of decisions, divorce mediation can help you reach a workable agreement in a structured, respectful process.
Fairway Divorce Solutions supports clients in Maple Ridge and nearby communities like Pitt Meadows, Mission, Port Coquitlam, and Langley. We help you sort out parenting, property division, and support using a clear roadmap, professional guidance, and practical tools—so you can move forward with confidence.
Getting a divorce through the traditional system takes an average of 3 years in Canada. If you need courtroom litigation, this can be much longer
When every conversation turns into conflict
If discussions keep circling the same issues—money, the home, schedules with the kids—it’s easy to feel stuck. Mediation creates a safer structure for decision-making, with clear steps and support so you can stop re-litigating the past and start building workable terms for the future.
What separation can look like in Maple Ridge
Life in Maple Ridge often means balancing work, school routines, and time outdoors—whether that’s weekends at Golden Ears Provincial Park, a walk along the Fraser River, or family time near Alouette Lake. A good separation plan respects those real-life rhythms.
Parenting plans that fit Ridge Meadows realities
We help you build a parenting schedule and decision-making plan that supports stability for your children, including holidays, travel, extracurriculars, and communication guidelines. The goal is a plan you can actually follow—now and as your kids grow.
Property and support decisions without the guesswork
From the family home to pensions, businesses, and shared debts, financial decisions can feel overwhelming. With structured financial disclosure and guidance, you can work toward a fair division of assets, and set child and spousal support in a way that is clear, documented, and sustainable.
A separation agreement you can rely on
Once terms are negotiated, we help you turn them into a comprehensive separation agreement that reflects your decisions and reduces future uncertainty. When questions come up later—like recalculating support—having a solid agreement makes updates far simpler.
The four cornerstones of a fair divorce
Our approach is designed around what most separating couples want most: less time, less cost, less stress, and better outcomes for children. With a guided process and specialists in legal, financial, and parenting matters, you can move from uncertainty to signed agreements with a clear plan and predictable next steps.
Reduce time
Separate in months, not years
You will reach a resolution within 120 days after financial disclosure is in place. If you each hire your own lawyers within the traditional legal system, then you have no control over time, and the divorce will drag on for years.
Reduce cost
Avoid shocking legal bills
We have a fixed fee that doesn’t change, so you know exactly what you are paying to go through the process of your divorce and reach a fair conclusion. Unlike lawyers and most mediators, we don’t work on an hourly basis.
Reduce stress
Independently negotiate a resolution
You will both move through the decision-making process separately. With our Independently Negotiated Resolution™ process, we reduce stressful interactions and avoid the power struggles that often interfere with making good decisions.
Protect the kids
Children should not be the victims
The Fairway Nurtured Children Plan™ ensures the best possible outcome for your children. We guide you through your divorce in a thoughtful, fair-minded way and make sure your children can thrive.
A structured process from first call to signed agreement
You don’t need to have everything figured out before you start. We guide you through a step-by-step pathway: intake and goal-setting, full financial disclosure, parenting and support discussions, negotiation, and drafting the agreement. Each step is designed to keep progress moving and to keep challenges manageable.
