Mediation: a tool for cooperation
Children are best served when parents maintain a cordial relationship. Through the structured process of mediation, parents can set aside anger and hostility and can agree on key points concerning their children.
Mediation can be a highly effective tool, helping you preserve your children’s well-being and the stability of their lives during the turbulent process of divorce. The predictability of mediation reduces the stress of child custody conflicts, and it puts important child-raising decisions in your hands, rather than in the hands of the court. We assertively guide negotiations toward a settlement that protects your children’s best interests and your parental rights.
By your side in litigation
Litigation may be necessary to protect your children’s best interests. If negotiations fail or the other parent is a danger to your child’s well-being, the courtroom provides an essential forum for establishing your parental rights. The uncertainty of litigation can add to the stress and upheaval of this time. With our experience by your side, you can feel confident that your children’s needs and your parental rights will be strongly and appropriately represented.
