    Are you the donor or recipient of spousal or child maintenance?

    Surely it is so both parties have to abide by what is agreed in mediation. As such the mediation agreement is not worth the paper it's written on. It is not a legal document.

    As desbrook says, if access and maintenance are included it is better to have them formalised.
    Also if you have any other special T&C's agreed. I don't think it costs much to get it drawn up legally once everything is agreed.

    Just to clarify - I just wanted to know if the OP was a donor or recipient of maintenance. There are different pro's and cons depending on which you are. I didn't say it was always better to formalise.

    Apologies, I didn't mean to twist your point so to speak. My original comment is my opinion on the subject.
