Streamline Your Divorce: Choose Mediation

My law office, Steven J. Hart has years of experience in family law. I listen carefully to each case and the specific details unique to the individual, intent on a achieving a fair and complete resolution. Mediation is an excellent solution for married couples that are having difficulties coming to an agreement about the main issues in a divorce, and need help. Avoiding a divorce trial can be important; it is more expensive and can be extremely stressful. Mediation offers an opportunity to work with a professional, trained in guiding both parties toward a compromise that works.

Why Mediation is the Preferred Choice for Family Law Disputes

Mediation is a common way couples settle family law matters, and is often ordered by the court. Choosing mediation is a recommended alternative dispute resolution method that can lead to a faster, less stressful resolution. A 3rd party mediator will work hard to find common ground and a solution that both parties can agree on, with the goal of an equitable final agreement. My intent is to settle matters in mediation, although there are always circumstances in which one party will not compromise, leaving litigation as the only option. In either case, my firm can help.

Commonly Asked Questions

How does the mediation process work for divorce cases?

The mediation process for divorce cases typically begins with both parties meeting with a trained mediator, who facilitates discussions about key issues such as asset division, child custody, and support. The mediator helps identify common ground and encourages open communication, allowing both parties to express their needs and concerns. Sessions may vary in length and number, depending on the complexity of the issues at hand. Throughout the process, the mediator remains neutral, guiding the couple towards a mutually agreeable resolution. Once an agreement is reached, it can be formalized and submitted to the court.

Is mediation suitable for all types of family law disputes?

Mediation is a highly effective method for many family law disputes, including divorce, child custody, and support issues. However, it may not be suitable for every situation. For instance, if there is a history of domestic violence or significant power imbalances between the parties, mediation may not provide a safe or equitable environment for resolution. In such cases, litigation might be necessary to ensure that the rights and safety of all parties are protected.

What should I prepare for my first mediation session?

Start by gathering all relevant documents, such as financial statements, tax returns, and any agreements related to child custody or support. It's also helpful to outline your goals and priorities for the mediation, including what you hope to achieve regarding asset division and parenting arrangements. Consider discussing your concerns and expectations with your mediator beforehand, as they can provide guidance on how to approach the session.
