The online brochure “Mediation of custody disputes at the district court” was prepared by the National Courts Administration and published on the website of the judiciary in Finnish and Swedish in March 2022. Now the brochure has been published also in English, French, Arabic, Somali and Russian.

The brochure contains information on expert-assisted mediation of custody disputes at district courts. Court mediation in custody disputes is an alternative to a lengthy and cumbersome trial. Disputes between parents concerning child custody, living arrangements, right of access and maintenance may be discussed during mediation. The aim of mediation is to reach a durable agreement between the parents in the best interests of the child.
