Mediation, Divorce Financial Analysis, and Consulting
Why Choose Mediation As Your Process?
Mediation is an option to settle the terms of your divorce, and I can help you determine if this is the right path for you. The initial conversation is always free. It also enables you to see how to move forward with your divorce.
Both parties have to communicate directly and in real time during mediation. This makes the process quicker and often less expensive.
You and your spouse know your family best, so both of you should be the decision makers. Rather than letting others negotiate for you or make decisions on your behalf, mediation enables the parties to work together using their intimate knowledge and communal considerations.
Mediation focuses on the opportunities, not the battle. As the process promotes effective communication, arguments and divisiveness are replaced with a more peaceful resolution.
A skilled mediator doesn’t allow your anger or fear to drive the process. I make sure you keep focused on your goals and interests.
You want to put your children first. Mediation builds a foundation for effective cooperation between parents, both during the divorce process and going forward.
