Mediation is a process where a neutral third party helps resolve disputes without going to family court.

Will mediation work if we do not get along?

Yes, mediation can work even if parties do not get along, as it provides a structured environment for resolution.

What family court issues can be mediated?

Property division, spousal maintenance, parenting plans, child support, and coparenting conflict can all be mediated.

Is mediation legally binding?

Agreements reached at mediation are memorialized in writing and signed by the parties. When signed, the agreements are typically legally binding.

How much does mediation cost?

Mediation costs vary depending on the complexity of the case. Contact us for a free consultation to discuss pricing.

How do I know if mediation is right for me?

If you want to reduce conflict, save time and expense, and have more control over the outcome of your family law matter, mediation may be an excellent option. An initial consultation can help determine whether mediation is appropriate for your situation and answer any concerns you may have.

Do I have to hire a family lawyer too?

No, you do not have to hire a family lawyer to mediate. While you can have a lawyer present to assist you during mediation, it often can impede the process if there isn't full alignment between your goals and your lawyer's goals. It can be a good idea to have a family lawyer review any agreements reached at mediation so that you fully understand everyone's rights and responsibilities.

Eliminate uncertainty

Take control over what matters most

When you go to family court, you leave it in the judge’s hands. Even if you “win,” you are unlikely to get exactly what you want. Mediation gives you far greater control over the outcome.
