Mediation Services
What is Family Mediation?
Mediation is a confidential, out-of-court process where a neutral third party (the mediator) helps separating or divorcing partners reach fair agreements on important family matters — without the stress and cost of litigation.
If you're facing issues around parenting plans, child or spousal support, division of property, or communication breakdowns, mediation can help you find solutions together.
Why Choose Mediation?
Reduce Conflict: Avoid adversarial court battles and preserve family relationships.
Cost-Effective: Typically less expensive than going to court.
Faster Resolutions: Schedule sessions on your timeline — not the court’s.
Flexible & Customized: Agreements are tailored to your family’s unique needs.
Confidential: Keep your family’s matters private.
Empowering: You stay in control of the outcomes — not a judge.
Step 1: Free Initial Consultation
We'll meet with you (and the other party if both agree) to understand your situation and explain how mediation works.
Step 2: Intake & Agreement to Mediate
Each party completes an intake form. We establish ground rules and ensure mediation is the right fit.
Step 3: Mediation Sessions
Sessions take place online or in-person. The mediator facilitates discussion to help both parties reach consensus.
Step 4: Drafting the Agreement
Once resolution is reached, we provide a written summary or draft agreement for review with independent legal advice.
Step 5: Next Steps
You can formalize the agreement through court (if needed) or simply move forward with confidence.
