Mediation in Domestic Relations
The process of divorce or dissolution does not have to be adversarial. Many families are unaware that there is a more effective tool in coming to a full resolution with regard to property, child custody, child support and spousal support and that is Mediation. Mediation allows for the parties to meet in a neutral, safe environment to discuss all the issues in their domestic relations case without the pressure of a court environment.
The benefits of using mediation include:
Confidentiality: there is no public disclosure of what is discussed in the course of mediation; the actual process promotes communication and cooperation between the parties in a safe environment instead of the litigious setting of a Court; it gives control to the parties in negotiating a settlement that is best suited for the needs of their family; and Mediation can be more cost-effective then on-going litigation.

Parenting Coordinator
Parenting coordinators are useful when parents are unable to communicate effectively with regard to day-to-day parenting issues. Each parent has direct access to the parenting coordinator and can call or email to get a timely response to a problem rather than having to wait for a hearing date. This can be a cost effective means of working through parenting problems without litigation.
Post Decree
Post Decree Litigation is what occurs after the final divorce, dissolution and parenting agreements are entered with the Court. Oftentimes families need help regarding enforcement and modifications with property agreements, child support, spousal support, parenting agreements, etc.
