Mediation, a method of alternative dispute resolution, is ideally suited to couples who have relatively comparable understandings of their family finances, the needs of their children, and the issues confronting them both currently and in the future.
It is a process of resolving conflict with an impartial third-party mediator who facilitates the discussion and ensures that all necessary issues are raised, addressed, and resolved.
The mediator helps you develop options to resolve disputes more as a facilitator than a decision-maker. The mediator can facilitate a resolution, but they do so in a neutral and mutually beneficial manner. Each spouse, however, is encouraged to seek individual counsel from their own attorney. Mediation can save clients time, anger, and cost.
Mediation is an excellent option for many families to resolve family law disputes. If mediation is not for you, Kvale Antonelli & Raj offers Collaborative Practice as an alternative.
