What is Divorce Mediation?

Divorce mediation is a process through which divorcing couples work with a neutral third party, known as a mediator, to reach agreements on various aspects of their divorce. The mediator facilitates communication and negotiation between the spouses to help them find mutually acceptable solutions to issues such as division of assets, child custody, visitation schedules, child support, and spousal support.|

During divorce mediation, the mediator does not make decisions for the couple but instead assists them in reaching their own agreements. The mediator helps the couple identify and discuss their concerns, explore different options, and find common ground.

The goal is to foster a cooperative and respectful environment that promotes effective communication and problem-solving.

Divorce mediation offers several potential benefits over traditional litigation:

Child Custody and Parenting Plans

Mediation is particularly valuable for developing comprehensive parenting plans that outline custody arrangements, visitation schedules, and decision-making processes for the children.
Parents can discuss and create agreements regarding legal custody (decision-making authority), physical custody (where the children will reside), and visitation or parenting time.

Child Support

Mediation allows parents to discuss and establish child support arrangements, taking into account factors such as the income of both parents, the needs of the children, and any special circumstances.

The mediator can facilitate discussions to ensure the child support agreement is fair and in accordance with relevant laws and guidelines.

Spousal Support or Alimony

Couples can negotiate and determine spousal support or alimony payments during divorce mediation. This includes discussing the amount, duration, and method of payment, taking into consideration factors such as the length of the marriage, each spouse’s income and earning potential, and any financial needs or obligations.

Division of Assets and Debts

Mediation provides a platform for couples to negotiate and reach agreements on how to divide their marital property, including real estate, bank accounts, investments, vehicles, and personal belongings.

Debts accumulated during the marriage, such as mortgages, loans, and credit card debt, can also be addressed.

Hear From Our Clients

Kathy Hildabrand

Gerry and Carol made a very difficult situation easier. They showed true professionalism and caring. I'm thankful to have worked with them both.

Jason Chism

My now ex-wife and I went through a lengthy mediation and both Gerry and Carol were a pleasure to work with and made the process less stressful. They were professional, fair and friendly in dealing with both of us. Although very amicable it took the two of us quite some time to settle on a final agreement, and Gerry was very patient with us throughout. He did not hinder us to rush anything and gave us time to come to an agreement on our own terms, in an adult manner.

Jim McNally

Excellent Service. Very professional and easy

Jenna Robichaux.

Gerry was wonderful from beginning to end. He was patient, kind, and honest with me the entire time. I hope you are as pleased as I have been.
