One of the great things about mediation is that we can tailor the team and process to your individual needs.
Here's a look at how mediation can be structured:
MEDIATION WITH AN ATTORNEY MEDIATOR
(1 professional)
Best for couples who are comfortable negotiating low conflict issues directly with one another and want to save costs by using one neutral professional.
​
I will work with both of you to reach a resolution. I do not represent one side or the other; I maintain my neutrality to help you both reach an agreement. My services include drafting and executing all the necessary documents and preparing you for your final divorce hearing. I know that costs are a significant concern for couples starting the divorce process so I offer both fixed fee and hourly payment options.
MEDIATION WITH A MEDIATION TEAM
(2-3 professionals)
Best for couples who will struggle to negotiate directly with their partner and would benefit from having a team of professionals to guide them through the divorce mediation process.
​
The team approach involves me as the attorney mediator and then most often a financial neutral and a divorce coach who is often a mental health professional. Together, we work to navigate your divorce with you and find comprehensive solutions.
​
​
MEDIATION WITH ATTORNEY ADVOCATES
(3 professionals)
If trust is broken and conflict is high, having attorney advocates for each individual is best.
​
Whether you currently have attorneys or are planning to hire attorneys, I can help you manage costs and time by offering mediation, arbitration and mediation-arbitration.
​
Did you know that a litigated divorce can easily last for a year or longer? Having a trial can delay the process even more and can have significant costs.
​
Using my services for mediation, mediation-arbitration, or arbitration, in conjunction with working with your attorneys can save you significant time and cost. Talk to your attorney as to whether mediation, arbitration, or med-arb would be a good option for you.
