Why more families in Erin are choosing mediation
The divorce process can often be seen as a long and painful legal battle—but it doesn’t have to be. At Fairway Divorce Solutions, we provide a structured, non-adversarial path that helps families move forward quickly and respectfully. Our fixed-fee mediation model removes uncertainty, making it easier for you to protect your finances and focus on what truly matters.
Getting a divorce through the traditional system takes an average of 3 years in Canada. If you need courtroom litigation, this can be much longer.
Avoid emotional and financial burnout
Fairway Divorce Solutions offers a path forward without the. Our skilled mediators help you work through parenting and financial matters step-by-step, so you’re not left navigating the process alone. With our help, most clients complete their divorce in under 120 days after disclosure—without unexpected legal fees or emotional gridlock.
Divorce support tailored to Erin’s families
Erin is a charming rural community nestled between Guelph and Orangeville, known for its friendly neighborhoods, local shops, and rolling farmland. Whether you’re raising a family near the historic downtown or living on a rural property, our services are tailored to meet the needs of Erin’s diverse families.
Local understanding with national experience
Our mediators understand the unique aspects of rural life and the value of property, business assets, and family roots. We’ll help you fairly address shared assets and parenting plans in a way that respects both parties’ priorities.
A process that fits your life
You don’t need to upend your life to get through a divorce. Our process is clear, time-efficient, and easy to follow, even for complex family situations.
Guiding principles for your separation
Our method is grounded in four key principles: reduce time, reduce cost, reduce stress, and protect the kids. It’s how we’ve helped over 7,000 Canadian families separate with less conflict and better outcomes.
Reduce cost
Avoid shocking legal bills
We have a fixed fee that doesn’t change, so you know exactly what you are paying to go through the process of your divorce and reach a fair conclusion. Unlike lawyers and most mediators, we don’t work on an hourly basis.
Reduce time
Separate in months, not years
You will reach a resolution within 120 days after financial disclosure is in place. If you each hire your own lawyers within the traditional legal system, then you have no control over time, and the divorce will drag on for years.
Reduce stress
Independently negotiate a resolution
You will both move through the decision-making process separately. With our Independently Negotiated Resolution™ process, we reduce stressful interactions and avoid the power struggles that often interfere with making good decisions.
Protect the kids
Children should not be the victims
The Fairway Nurtured Children Plan™ ensures the best possible outcome for your children. We guide you through your divorce in a thoughtful, fair-minded way and make sure your children can thrive.
The Fairway Method™
From financial disclosure to final agreement, we guide you step-by-step using a structured process proven to resolve most separations in under 120 days. And with a fixed fee, you always know what to expect.

Client testimonials
Success comes in many forms. For us, it is hearing back from our clients and reading how we have changed their lives for the better. These stories are the reason we do what we do.
I recently helped a friend navigate a divorce that was settled by Fairway Divorce Solutions and I have never been more impressed with a service. The staff are professional, compassionate, patient and understanding. Divorce is never easy. However, Fairway uses mediation to transform a process typically filled with animosity and conflict into a process of mutual respect and understanding, ensuring that separations are completed with the lowest cost (financially and emotionally) to the family.
