Mediation is a process in which you and your spouse meet with a neutral third party (the mediator) to work through issues related to your divorce, including division of assets and liabilities, spousal support (alimony), child support, living arrangements / time-sharing for the children, and parental responsibilities. It is an informal, confidential conflict management process geared toward effective problem solving. The mediation process allows the parties a great deal of flexibility in reaching these decisions. The mediator does not make decisions or decide issues in your case. Instead, the mediator acts as an impartial facilitator, helping you find voluntary, mutually acceptable resolutions. In mediation, you and your spouse (not the judge) are the ones that make the decisions that affect your lives.
