Divorce Mediation is a court-approved alternative to divorce litigation. It is a private and confidential process through which a separating or divorcing couple, assisted by a trained, experienced mediator, can arrive at their own decisions concerning what is fair and reasonable for their particular family situation. Both parties are strongly encouraged to have their individual attorney review any agreements.

Divorce Mediation is both private and confidential. The only document that leaves the mediator’s office is the Memorandum of Understanding. All mediator notes are destroyed once the mediation is completed. Mediation is voluntary and either party has the right to end the mediation process at any time.
