Why Mediation?

  • Court-ordered - Many family law disputes involving children are required to be mediated before a judge will decide disputes between the parties.
  • The dispute can be decided by the parties as opposed to by a Judge.
  • Could reduce the costs of litigating disputes. An agreement can be reached as to some issues or all issues.
