About Mediation:
“Dialogue is the most effective way of resolving conflict.” - Dalai Lama
Whether in business or personal lives, to “partner” is to bring two entities together for the purpose of forging a unique and productive bond. To separate is to dissolve the partnership and disentangle the bond. This process is deeply emotional and, to be successful, requires daunting and often complex legal, logistical, and financial components.
Mediation is a voluntary, private, efficient, and affordable alternative to litigation. Through the mediation process, the parties work with a trained mediator to engage in productive dialogue that, in most cases, leads to a mutually satisfactory agreement.
The first step in the process is to engage a qualified mediator.
Couples separating require an agreement that:
- divides assets and debts,
- includes spousal maintenance decisions,
- addresses co-parenting plans, and
- resolves child support obligations
In plain language, a mediator explains the laws applicable to your situation. The mediator will then work with you and your partner to come to an agreement that works for both of you.
When you listen: you understand, and others feel understood.
When you are heard: you feel understood and others understand.
When you engage in conversation: conflicts can achieve resolution.
