Setting Aside Child Support Provisions within Separation Agreement

Mediation is a process in which a neutral third party, known as a mediator, helps facilitate communication and negotiation between two or more parties who are involved in a dispute or conflict. The mediator does not make decisions or impose solutions but instead assists the parties in reaching a mutually acceptable agreement. The goal of mediation is to promote understanding, identify common interests, and explore possible solutions that address the needs and concerns of all parties involved. It is a voluntary and confidential process that encourages open dialogue and empowers the parties to actively participate in finding a resolution that meets their interests and maintains relationships.
In the Pre-mediation stage, we will prepare for the mediation. This involves several activities and steps taken by the mediator and the parties to ensure that the mediation session is productive and successful.
The Mediation Session begins with the parties establishing an agenda of topics. The mediator assists the parties through the agenda. Mediations can last for several hours or span over several days, which is the choice of the parties.
It’s at this stage where we take all the hard work the parties accomplished in resolving their topics and format them into a memorandum of understanding to be reviewed by their respective counsel.
