Begin with a stress-free meeting with me to discuss your situation and what you can expect from mediation. This can be either a phone call or a video call over Zoom and can be handled individually or together.
In a series of guided sessions, I will help you create a plan that covers everything you need for your divorce. These sessions can be conducted virtually and will cover all financial matters. If you have children, we will also cover all topics relating to them.
The nature of the mediation process allows me to understand a family’s needs in order to customize workable solutions for their future. At the conclusion of the process, a couple will have the necessary information to file for an uncontested dissolution.
Mediation is the most affordable and peaceful avenue for concluding your marriage. It's a guided negotiation where you and your spouse meet with me, a neutral third-party lawyer and divorce mediator. Together, we will work through the terms of your divorce and find a resolution that fully suits your family's specific needs.
