Family Law Mediation

Mediation is a particularly useful tool for resolving a wide array of family law cases.

Whether it is a child custody dispute or a disagreement about how assets should be divided following a divorce, mediation is one way to limit some of the contentiousness associated with family law litigation. Mediation and negotiation allow people to break down the dispute into discrete issues and resolve them individually.

Mediation also gives the parties to a family law case the power to have a say in how the issues are resolved. Instead of leaving it up to a judge, the parties work directly with an experienced mediator to reach a compromise that is acceptable to both sides. Palm Beach Divorce Mediator

Mediation Services For Businesses

Mediation is a common solution for businesses locked in a broad spectrum of legal disputes.

Many companies prefer arbitration over traditional litigation. Arbitration is a formal proceeding that is similar to courtroom litigation, but it takes place behind closed doors in front of a private arbitrator. Unlike in mediation, an arbitrator’s decision is final and binding.

The benefit of mediation is that it is a less formal approach, which focuses on collaborative problem-solving. That can be helpful in complicated business law cases where creative and flexible solutions may be required.
