Ridley & Hall is pleased to announce that mediator and solicitor, Vicky Medd, has joined their practice.

Vicky will be heading up the Mediation department as well as working with the Family team.  Vicky is a solicitor with 21 years’ experience of family law, and specialises in divorce and financial provision.  She is an accredited member of Resolution, and a collaboratively trained solicitor as well.

Adam Fletcher, Mangaging Partner, said “We are really pleased that Vicky has joined us.  She is an experienced solicitor and family mediator, and is well known across West Yorkshire.  I have every confidence that she will provide clients with a good service.”

Vicky confirmed that she was pleased to be joining Ridley & Hall, “I am looking forward to working with the team and welcome the opportunity to head up a new department in Mediation.  Family mediation is a much cheaper way of resolving disputes between divorcing or separating couples.  We can help people try and sort out finances in mediation, as well as assisting in making better arrangements for children.  Mediation tends to have better outcomes than court ordered arrangements, as it is the clients themselves who make the decisions that are best for them.  In addition, I hope to guide clients through a difficult emotional time at a pace that is best for them and their situation.”

Vickie Medd can be contacted by telephone on 01484 538421 or by e-mail.
