It should look very like any other marital settlement agreement. Drafting an agreement requires the technical skills of a lawyer. A mediator who isn’t a lawyer isn’t authorized to draft agreements as such. Unfortunately, some attorneys still draft agreements in a style that may be called “legal gobbledegook,” rather than in plain English. But many attorneys and judges are coming to believe that the best legal drafting is clear, understandable English prose.
