# Maura McKibbin Collaborative Solicitor & Mediator

Maura McKibbin is a family law solicitor and mediator based in Altrincham who specialises in helping couples navigate separation outside the courtroom. With over 25 years' experience in family law, she works with parents and families going through the emotionally and financially demanding process of relationship breakdown.

Rather than pursuing adversarial litigation, Maura advocates for a collaborative, problem-solving approach that addresses the emotional, financial and legal dimensions of separation simultaneously. She helps clients understand their options early on, enabling them to make informed decisions that keep them in control of both outcomes and costs. Her particular strength lies in supporting parents to maintain effective co-parenting relationships as their family structure adjusts, recognising that children benefit when separation is handled constructively.

What sets Maura apart is her combination of deep legal expertise with genuine empathy for the challenges families face. She brings honesty, dedication, reliability and flexibility to every case, treating each family's circumstances as unique rather than applying generic solutions. Her mediation training complements her solicitor credentials, allowing her to facilitate productive conversations between separating partners.

She serves couples, parents and individuals in the North West who want to resolve separation matters efficiently, affordably and amicably. Maura's approach appeals to those seeking to preserve dignity, protect children's wellbeing and avoid the trauma and expense of court proceedings.
