Mediation can be a useful tool in a variety of cases. Even though your matter may be amicable, there are sometimes important issues that you just can’t come to an agreement on without outside help. In other cases, you may be facing a bitter and costly court battle. Mediation can give you an opportunity to avoid that conflict and come to a civil agreement.

Here are some of the benefits of hiring a family mediator:

  • Cost-Effectiveness: Mediation is often less expensive than going to court, saving you time and money.
  • Control Over Decisions: You and the opposing party maintain control over the outcome instead of leaving it in the hands of a judge.
  • Confidentiality: Mediation is a private process, unlike court proceedings, which are part of the public record.
  • Reduced Conflict: By fostering communication and cooperation, mediation helps reduce animosity and preserve relationships, especially important when children are involved.
  • Customized Solutions: Mediation allows for creative solutions tailored to your unique needs, rather than one-size-fits-all court orders.

With the right mediator the process can be a constructive and empowering step toward resolving your family law matter amicably.

The Family Law Mediation Process

Mediation typically involves the following steps:

1

Initial Agreement to Mediate: Both parties agree to engage in mediation to resolve their disputes.
2

Preparation: Both parties gather necessary documents and information, such as financial records and parenting plans, to ensure productive discussions.
3

Mediation Sessions: During sessions, the mediator facilitates discussions to help both parties reach agreements on key issues, such as child custody, spousal support, and property division. This is historically followed by exploring and resolving any remaining smaller issues.
4

Drafting Agreements: Once an agreement has been reached, the mediator will draft a memorialization of the settlement agreement for review and approval by both parties.

At Koller Baker & Associates, we handle mediation with care, professionalism, and a focus on mutually acceptable solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an attorney if I’m going through mediation?

While mediation itself doesn’t require an attorney, having legal representation helps ensure your rights are protected and that any agreements are in your best interest.

How long does mediation take?

The length of mediation depends on the complexity of the issues and the willingness of both parties to negotiate. Most cases are resolved in a day.

Can we use the same mediator and attorney?

No. Mediators must remain neutral, while attorneys represent one party.

Can mediation work for high-conflict divorces?

Yes, a skilled mediator can help manage high-conflict situations. Even contentious cases can benefit from the structured, collaborative approach mediation offers.
