Family Medation
Family issues are tough.
Emotions. Personal needs. Your childrens’ needs. On-going relationships. It can feel completely overwhelming. And if you’re contemplating divorce, you already know how hard it is. Even if you and your spouse have a relatively cooperative relationship, it can feel numbing when you add in the heartache of your dreams falling apart combined with the practical concerns of finding ways to move forward both personally and financially. But you do have choices. You have a choice in resolving these questions: Litigation: Expensive, uncertain and adversarial. You both pay for lawyers to speak for you so that a judge who knows hardly anything about you will decide your parenting and financial fates. And afterwards, the relationship between a spouse or ex-spouse seldom gets better after a knock-down fight in court. Mediation: A neutral mediator helps you have a conversation about the legal and financial questions that all divorcing couples must face. Even if you have a separate legal adviser, you both speak for yourself and you both pay much less. And importantly, the people who know the most about you and your children make all the decisions: You! |
