Meet Rebecca Alleyne
Family Mediator in Victoria, BC
I’m a family lawyer and accredited family mediator with more than 20 years of experience, and for the past 12 years I’ve practiced exclusively in family mediation in Victoria BC. I help couples navigate separation and divorce in a calm, structured, and practical way.
As a family mediator, I guide you through the conversations you need to have about parenting, child support, spousal support, and the division of property so you can create a clear, workable Separation Agreement that meets the legal requirements under BC family law. My goal is to offer a supportive mediation process that keeps you focused on solutions rather than conflict.
Because I’m also a family lawyer, I give you legal information throughout your separation mediation and explain how BC family law applies to your situation. When you reach agreement, I prepare your final legal Separation Agreement so you leave with a professionally drafted document that reflects your decisions and supports long term stability.
My approach brings together experienced family mediation, practical legal guidance, and a clear path forward for spouses separating in BC.
A Proven 5-Step Family Mediation Process
My process for separation mediation gives you a clear, structured path through to your Separation Agreement so you always know what to expect. I use a five step approach that helps you prepare, understand your legal and financial landscape under BC family law, communicate effectively, and reach balanced agreements about parenting, child support, spousal support, and the division of property. Each step is designed to reduce conflict, keep conversations productive, and guide you toward a Separation Agreement that reflects your intentions and meets BC’s legal requirements.
I've refined this family mediation process over my 20 year career, to help people in Victoria and throughout BC move through their separation and divorce with clarity, confidence and efficiency. It keeps you organized, supports respectful communication, and ensures you have the documents and legal information you need at each stage. You can explore each step in more detail through the visual below or by visiting the full overview of the Family Mediation Process.

Why Family Mediation Works
Family mediation is the best first step because we do the real work together, in the same room, at the same time. As a separation and divorce lawyer, I can explain how BC family law applies to your situation and guide you through each decision. As we talk through the issues, we look at the same information, get answers to the same questions, and build a shared understanding of what makes sense for your family.
Once we have shaped the plan together, I draft a legal Separation Agreement in clear language. You can then take the Separation Agreement to your own divorce lawyer for independent legal advice. By that point, most of the heavy lifting is already done and the cost has been shared. In my experience, when couples work through the information together and understand the law at the same time, there is usually very little left to fight about.
One Process. Consistent Outcomes.
Whether you meet with your family mediator in person or online, every separation mediation follows the same proven system to guide families through to a Separation Agreement. We use specialized software to help us with calculations for clear financial decision making, which ensures consistency, efficiency, and fairness in every family mediation.
Our legal separation mediation process provides structure to the conversation so the right issues come up at the right time, and all the legal, financial, and practical details are addressed. From there, the mediation is tailored to your family’s unique situation. The result is a clear, supportive process that saves time, reduces conflict, and delivers a professional Separation Agreement you can rely on.
Choosing a family mediator who is also a divorce lawyer gives you the benefit of clear legal guidance and supportive mediation in one place. We help you understand the law, work through your decisions, and we draft a complete legal Separation Agreement so you can move forward with confidence.
