Bertus Preller is the visionary founder of Family Law Mediators Cape Town (FMS), where he serves as an adept Mediator and a seasoned Family and Divorce Law Attorney. He is affiliated with Maurice Phillips Wisenberg a law firm in Cape Town.

Together, they bring a wealth of expertise and a client-centered approach to the complex landscape of family law.
Family Law Mediation is an innovative, peaceful, and highly effective alternative to the often adversarial and time-consuming process of divorce litigation. It represents a modern, intelligent approach to dispute resolution, offering numerous benefits that are increasingly being recognized by those seeking amicable separations. Mediation is not just a method of resolving disputes; it's a process that empowers parties to arrive at mutually beneficial agreements with lasting impact.
One of the key advantages of Family Law Mediation is its confidentiality. Unlike court hearings, which are public and can be emotionally draining, mediation sessions are conducted in a private, confidential setting. The mediator serves as a neutral third party, facilitating the conversation without imposing solutions, thereby allowing the parties to maintain control over the outcome.
Another significant benefit is cost-effectiveness. Mediation generally takes less time than traditional legal proceedings, which translates to lower hourly fees and overall costs. This efficiency is particularly beneficial in emotionally charged situations, where prolonged legal battles can exacerbate stress and strain familial relationships.
However, it is important to note that mediation is not a one-size-fits-all solution. While it offers many advantages, there are situations where mediation may not be the most appropriate course of action. For instance, cases involving power imbalances, abuse, or an unwillingness to compromise may not be suitable for this approach. Nevertheless, many individuals who initially hold entrenched positions find that the mediation process enables them to reach a meaningful compromise.
In summary, Family Law Mediators Cape Town offers a modern, intelligent, and empathetic approach to family and divorce law. With the expertise of Bertus Preller and Nicole Martin, clients can navigate the complexities of family disputes in a more peaceful, cost-effective, and confidential manner.

"Mediation can produce remarkable results in the most unpropitious of circumstances, especially when conducted by one of the several hundred people in this country who have been trained in the process. Unlike settlement negotiations between legal advisers, in themselves frequently fruitful, the process is conducted by an independent expert who can, under conditions of the strictest confidentiality, isolate underlying interests, use the information to identify common ground and, by drawing on his or her own legal and other knowledge, sensitively encourage an evaluation of the prospects of success in the litigation and an appreciation of the costs and practical consequences of continued litigation, particularly if the case is a loser. Brassey AJ in the case of Brownlee v Brownlee: Case number: 2008/25274.
