When many people think of divorce, they imagine a public, hotly contested legal battle in a courtroom. While some divorces do, indeed, go to litigation, they don’t all have to. In fact, many couples choose mediation over litigation, as it is a far less combative and much more private process. During mediation, a neutral, third-party mediator will listen to both you and your spouse, and, from there, work to facilitate an amicable, common-sense agreement that is acceptable to both parties.
-
An Initial Consultation
First, we will sit down together and discuss your situation. Here, you can ask questions, raise concerns, and we will begin identifying what is most important to you moving forward. -
Planning
From there, a plan will be developed based on your specific goals. Whether your case is better suited for negotiation, mediation, or litigation, you will have a clear understanding of how to proceed. -
Filing & Response
Once you are ready to move forward, the appropriate documents will be filed to initiate the divorce process. -
Information Gathering
Divorce is, in many ways, a document-driven process. At this stage, both parties will exchange financial and other relevant information so that all aspects of the case are properly evaluated. -
Negotiation or Mediation
In many cases, it is possible to reach a resolution outside of the courtroom. When that is the goal, having a skilled negotiator in your corner is paramount. We can help you work toward a fair, reasonable outcome. -
Court Proceedings
Of course, not every case can be resolved through agreement. If that happens, the matter may proceed through the court system, where your interests will be fully advocated for. -
Moving Forward
Ultimately, once your case is resolved, you’ll have an agreement in place that allows you to move forward and begin the next chapter of your life.
