We’re excited to share that Ella was recently interviewed by Perth mediator Lisanne Eriks for her podcast ‘Conversations to Cut the Conflict’.
Lisanne and Ella discussed why she advocates for many of her clients to avoid going to Court for their divorce, and rather use tools like family mediation to settle their financial and child agreements.
Conversations To Cut The Conflict
Lisanne writes:
I loved recording this episode with Ella Hickman from Hickman Family Lawyers.
Ella is not only a great human being but also a great lawyer.
She practices almost exclusively in family law, dealing with both parenting and property issues. Ella is a firm believer in mediation, and resolving matters sensibly and commercially without the need for lengthy, expensive, and stressful court proceedings. She is absolutely committed to getting clients the best outcomes, with her focus being on reaching practical outcomes, and reducing stress and financial cost so people can move on with their lives as easily as possible.
We talk about why people should not go to the Family Court, what you can do to prevent going to the family court and how you can get out of the system when you have entered into it.
This is a great episode for anyone who is a separated parent in conflict and it is also a great episode for any professional that is working with separated parents in conflict but is not a lawyer.
I enjoyed recording this conversation.
It is full of brilliant information.
