Gallery Magazine published Alexandra’s expert guide to Non-Court Dispute Resolution (NCDR), explaining how separating couples can resolve disputes without going to court.
“There is a broadly accepted principle that it is better to settle a dispute outside of court. NCDR can save time and costs and of course the couple are able to choose the type of NCDR that they wish to engage in.”
The piece outlines three key approaches available in Jersey: traditional mediation through organisations like Family Mediation Jersey, lawyer-led mediation with qualified legal mediators, and Private FDR/DRA where couples choose their own ‘judge’ to provide neutral guidance.
Alexandra emphasises that these methods offer higher settlement rates, reduced stress, and allow couples to maintain control over their outcomes. The article particularly highlights Private FDR for financial disputes and Private DRA for children matters as highly effective alternatives to court proceedings.
