Divorce mediation is an alternative to litigation when disputes arise over child support, child custody and visitation, and equitable division of marital assets and debt. Litigation often leaves both parties feeling taken advantage of, whereas mediation is designed to generate agreements that address each individual's interests.
At Bennett & Associates, we provide neutral divorce mediation services, in which a couple, along with consulting divorce lawyers (when appropriate), work with an experienced divorce mediation attorney to resolve your outstanding disputes. The trained mediator acts as a neutral and does not represent either party. It is the role of the mediator to assist you and your consulting attorney, so that you can identify the most important interests on each side, engage in meaningful negotiation, and craft agreements that take those interests into consideration.
