About Mediation

Divorce Mediation Services are provided for couples divorcing with or without attorneys. The mediator narrows issues and facilitates communication for brainstorming and option building on all issues necessary in a divorce, such as child sharing, child support, division of assets, debts and alimony. The mediator helps the couple reduce the agreement reached in mediation to a Marital Settlement Agreement and assists them to complete the California Supreme Court Forms. Prior to the final signing, it is recommended that the parties consult separately with an attorney and accountant.

Divorce mediation stands out as one of the fastest growing areas for the use of mediation. Couples have the opportunity to create their own agreement. Sensitive issues such as, parental sharing, child support, division of assets, debts, and alimony, can be solved by the parties who are ultimately affected by the decisions reached. Couples are also finding the benefits of mediating divorces because of the financial savings, faster resolution and avoidance of the severe emotional stress associated with a “court battle.” More and more couples are going to mediators before going to attorneys.

Why use a Business trained and Certified Mediator.

Many mediators are attorneys and retired judges, although having mediation experience, they maintain that they can mediate any dispute.
It’s true that they can try to mediate, but how well do they truly understand the core issues without invoking the law, that’s where we are different we look to get to an agreement regardless of the law, and are sensitive to both the obvious and the less obvious issues, few attorneys and Judges now in mediation are able to separate the law and get to an agreement.
