WE'RE WITH YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
With years of experience as litigators for families before turning exclusively to mediation, we deeply understand the legal and emotional landscape you are facing.
WHO CAN MEDIATE
Anyone committed to resolving their conflict amicably can benefit from mediation. Mediation is voluntary, so it only works when both people participate willingly. With the help of a skilled, neutral facilitator, even those in “high conflict” relationships can efficiently reach agreements that meet your needs. If you’re willing to listen, be creative, and focus on what matters most, you can resolve it all out of court through mediation.
TYPES OF MEDIATION
We can help you address and resolve all of your divorce and related concerns, including financial matters and parenting plans.
-
DIVORCE MEDIATION
We provide comprehensive and efficient divorce mediation services designed to help you stay in control and out of court. We help you through the divorce process one step at a time, including a thorough review and analysis of your assets and liabilities, and structured guidance that allows you to have productive discussions in each mediation session. At the conclusion of your mediation matter, you will have a full and final agreement regarding the division of your marital estate.
-
SUPPORT MEDIATION
We also offer detailed guidance on support matters, including both alimony and child support. We review your income information and other important considerations with you, such as the cost of health insurance, out-of-pocket medical expenses, and childcare costs. We assist you in reaching an agreement that provides both you and your children with a secure financial plan and a clear path forward.
-
CUSTODY MEDIATION
When you are divorcing and have children, we understand that meeting their needs is your top priority. We offer a compassionate, confidential, child-centered way to negotiate your co-parenting and custody agreements. Mediation protects the financial and emotional resources you need for your children by focusing on what’s important and avoiding expensive and lengthy court battles. It also fosters the trust and communication necessary for positive co-parenting, which will benefit your family long after your divorce is over.

In New Jersey, we provide you with essential information regarding the options for filing your divorce to ensure your agreement is legally binding and enforceable in New Jersey.
In Pennsylvania, We will draft the documents you will need to file with the Court, including your Divorce Complaint, Acceptance of Service, the final Marital Settlement Agreement, Decree, and accompanying documents.

OUR MEDIATION GROUND RULES
The participants must conduct themselves with respect toward each other and their attorney-mediator.
The participants should understand that they will need to work hard toward compromising and maintaining flexibility throughout the divorce mediation process.
The participants will need to cooperate with each other to resolve their outstanding differences. In particular, participants will need to use their best efforts to commit to the mediation process to arrive at a resolution of their issues and not threaten litigation without compromise.
The participants acknowledge that there is no formal discovery process in mediation and that they must fully and voluntarily cooperate and disclose all relevant, material documents and information.
All communication with your attorney-mediator about substantive issues will occur with both participants present or by email to all involved.
Neither blame nor fault should be brought into the divorce mediation session.
Decisions regarding the children are prioritized, and children should not be used as bargaining tools.
