Mediation

Mediation is a voluntary and often mandatory process in which a mediator, trained in facilitation and negotiation techniques, assists all parties to reach a mutually acceptable conclusion. Mediated agreements, especially in situations involving families and divorce, may include unique solutions tailored to specific situations that are not available in arbitration or litigation through the court system.

Issues resolved through mediation include:

 • Division of Debts

 • Division of Assets

 • Parenting Plan

 • Spousal Support

 • Child Support

 • Divorce Modifications

There is no obligation to reach an agreement though most often one is reached.  If a mediation agreement is reached between the parties and is signed by the parties to the mediation, then it becomes binding and enforceable.
