Mediation is a sound way to help you and your spouse resolve disputed issues during a divorce. Child custody, spousal support, and the division of property can all be settled through a successful mediation, keeping you out of the courtroom and preventing financially and emotionally taxing litigation.
Divorce mediation is designed to allow an impartial attorney to work with both parties to negotiate an amicable resolution of all issues. Mediation is also a private process accomplished through a series of informal sessions at our office with Attorney Zimmer acting as the mediator.
This means your divorce issues will not be discussed in a public forum for others to hear. Mediation provides you with much more control over the resolution of the issues at hand. Instead of a judge deciding these matters, you will be working them out between you and your spouse.
Litigation is an expensive and time-consuming process where your issues are publicly discussed in a court in front of a judge who will make the ultimate decisions regarding your family and your future. Using mediation to resolve your differences outside of court can save you time, money, and heartache. With mediation, you can:
All mediation sessions are handled outside of the courtroom by a professional attorney who represents both parties impartially, providing unbiased advice and ideas on how to reach a mutually acceptable agreement. Once those ideas are agreed upon by the divorcing parties, the mediator can draft a written settlement agreement that will act as your divorce stipulation.
Depending on the complexity of the issues, mediation can take as little as a few hours. In cases where complex issues are involved, the process can take significantly longer. During the mediation process, couples will resolve important issues related to child custody, spousal and child support, property division, and other complex matters.
Only you and your spouse hold the answer to that question. Since mediation is a voluntary process, both parties must be willing to participate in the process and be committed to resolving their differences.
To help better determine if you are a good candidate for mediation, you and your spouse should both be able to answer “yes" to the following questions:
If both you and your spouse answered "yes" to the above questions, then you are most likely a good candidate for mediation. Your next step is to call the Law Office Of Ronald S. Zimmer office for a FREE consultation.
Mediation, however, is not a viable solution for many families, as divorce proceedings can be volatile and complex. Necessary conditions to present good candidates for mediation include:
Mediation is one of the most affordable ways to achieve a divorce. By using one impartial mediator, you do not have to appear in court, hire separate attorneys, and spend months (or even years) litigating in front of a judge in a public courtroom. Often, our office can do an entire mediation on a flat fee basis, and payment plans are available making your mediation even more affordable.
In the end, your mediated divorce will cost a fraction of a litigated divorce case, take far less time to complete, and will save your family from the emotional upheaval of a messy divorce. Additionally, you will send a message to your spouse and family that you want to put the needs of your family first by promoting a positive atmosphere through effective.
All mediation starts with a frank conversation with your spouse. Our office provides a FREE consultation, which should include both spouses meeting with our attorney at the same time. At that consultation, you will learn valuable information about the mediation process and leave with all the information necessary to determine if the process is right for your situation.
