Mediation is a structured settlement process in which a neutral mediator helps the parties negotiate disputed issues such as parenting time, support, and division of property. A successful mediation often results in a written settlement agreement that can be used to finalize court orders.
When should you hire mediation counsel?
Mediation counsel services should be hired when you want to resolve issues without trial but need advice on what terms are reasonable, what evidence supports your position, and what language is required for enforcement. Legal support is also important when there is a history of intimidation, high conflict, or unequal access to financial information.
