What is Mediation?

Mediation is a process in which people work together with a trained mediator to negotiate and resolve their differences in a non-adversarial forum. It is based on the premise that couples are fully capable of making the best decisions possible for themselves, and that these decisions will have a long-term personal and financial impact on their lives.
 
When Cooperation is Possible

Our family law practice attorneys believe that when cooperation in matters involving divorce and child custody is possible, arbitration and mediation is well worth the effort. We represent individuals in matters involving: 
  • Divorce
  • Child Custody
  • Child Support
  • Litigation
  • Spousal Maintenance (Alimony)
  • Property and Debt Division 
  • Prenuptial Agreements 
An Alternative that can Provide Fair and Realistic Solutions

Mediation can provide fair and realistic solutions to difficult issues that families face during the divorce process. For many couples, it is a preferred alternative to the financial and emotional costs associated with traditional divorce legal representation. 
 
Mediation is an Option for People Who:
  • Believe that they can maintain a friendship with their partner;
  • Would like to co-parent their children, and want the best co-parenting relationship possible;
  • Want to protect their children from the possible damaging effects of traditional divorce proceedings;
  • Think they are capable of making fair and rational decisions about the division of their own property;
  • Are willing to consider the possibility of reaching a resolution that is fair and amicable to everyone involved.
