Not every conflict needs to end in court. At Gigera Law Services, we help individuals and families across Calgary, the United Kingdom, and Nigeria resolve personal and domestic disputes through professional mediation and structured conflict resolution.
Our goal is simple: to help people find fair, practical solutions in a respectful and non-adversarial environment.
Whether you’re facing a separation, co-parenting conflict, or disagreements over shared assets or responsibilities—our team provides the support and structure to resolve issues collaboratively and move forward peacefully.
Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process where an impartial third party (the mediator) helps people resolve their disputes and reach a mutually acceptable agreement. It is flexible, efficient, and often far less stressful than court.
Dispute resolution includes a range of techniques—mediation, negotiation, collaborative discussions—that focus on constructive problem-solving without formal litigation.
We also provide legal guidance during Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) sessions, including:
You and another party need to make long-term decisions about shared responsibilities or property.
You want to protect relationships and reduce emotional conflict.
You’re hoping to avoid court battles, legal fees, and delays.
You want more control over the outcome rather than letting a judge decide.
You value privacy and confidentiality.

Initial Consultation
We meet with each party (individually or together) to understand the conflict, goals, and boundaries.
Mediation Planning
We set up sessions—virtual or in person—with neutral ground rules and clear expectations.
Facilitated Sessions
Our trained mediator guides both parties toward agreement, ensuring fair dialogue and balanced outcomes.
Agreement Drafting
Once resolved, we create a written agreement that can be reviewed and, if needed, formalized through legal channels.
No, but it’s helpful to have legal advice before and after the mediation process to review any agreements before signing.
The agreement can become legally binding if both parties sign it and, in some cases, file it with the court or formalize it through legal documents.
Mediation is voluntary, but we can guide you through alternatives or move to formal dispute resolution if needed.
It depends on the complexity of the issues. Some matters are resolved in a few sessions; others may take longer. It’s still generally faster than court.
Yes. Our trained mediators manage communication and guide respectful dialogue even in high-conflict situations.
