The Good Divorce

By choosing the mediation process and looking for “the good divorce,” you are taking control of the decisions you must make in order to obtain a divorce. Nevertheless, negotiating with an estranged spouse is often painful. As your neutral mediators, it is our job to guide you through the necessary decisions with respect to parenting and finances, all the while respecting your autonomy to make your own best choices. We strive along the way to give you the opportunity to be heard and understood, and to listen to and understand the other party, as well. This provides a foundation for compromise and choices that should make sense to both of you as you contemplate your new lives after the divorce.

For divorcing parents, mediation is a chance to design schedules and parenting roles and responsibilities that reflect your unique family. Additionally, as we help you to bring understanding to this aspect of the negotiations, you may preserve a measure of your relationship, or begin a new manner of communication as cooperative parents.

Non-Traditional Families

The understanding-based model of mediation applies equally to unmarried couples and same-sex couples who find themselves separating. We bring the same level of sensitivity and financial and parenting expertise to these negotiations.
