What gets discussed in divorce mediation?
Divorce mediators cover the same topics that would be covered in a litigated divorce. If there are minor children, we discuss parenting schedules, parenting plans, child support and related issues. We discuss how to distribute both the financial assets and financial liabilities of the couple – e.g., what happens to the house, the cars, the Visa bill. This is called equitable distribution. We discuss whether spousal support (also referred to as alimony) is warranted, and if so, the nature, type and amount. Each couple is different. One of the advantages of mediating your divorce with is that we take the time to understand your unique situation and your unique needs, wants and concerns. We take the time to craft a divorce agreement that addresses them.
