About Family Mediation:
Mediation is a process by which parties in conflict come together to resolve disputes and negotiate mutually acceptable agreements with the assistance of an impartial mediator facilitating the discussion and negotiations. The mediator does not make decisions and any agreement reached is voluntarily decided by the participants.
Family Mediation:

Seeks to minimize the time, costs, and emotional impacts too often seen with the
traditional court process
Promotes a resolution that meets each unique family’s goals
Is based on the participants' schedules, not a schedule imposed by a court
Is a confidential and informal process
Facilitates communication between the participants
Puts children first
Strives for financial and parenting decisions that meet the needs of everyone involved
