The Mediation Process The goal of our mediation team is to help you negotiate and resolve issues such as custody, visitation, property division, child support, spousal support and other issues. "We believe that divorce is not the end, rather a transition to a new beginning".... Stephen E. Felman Below is an explanation of the process: Intake Appointment An initial intake appointment is held during which both spouses attend and the general goals of the parties are discussed. A written agreement between the parties themselves, as well as the mediator, is reviewed and signed. The mediator will assign certain tasks at this initial meeting, such as bringing in certain documentation for the next meeting. Subsequent Appointments A series of subsequent appointments are then conducted. Most will consist of a conjoint session (both spouses and the mediator) The number of appointments will depend on the number of issues the spouses need to negotiate and the degree to which they are willing to compromise. The frequency of appointments is scheduled according to how much time spouses need to complete homework assignments and/or to think between sessions. Agreement At each session the mediator makes detailed notes of agreements as they are reached. When all issues are resolved as a result of the mediation sessions, the mediator will draft a memorandum of understanding ( your agreement), which is a document summarizing the agreements that have been made. The mediator will recommend that the spouses take the agreement to a consulting attorney to look over the final document before signing. Once signed, the mediator sends the document to court for approval, and the matter is concluded If you and your spouse believe that mediation is the right path for you and your family, allow the experienced and caring mediators at Divorce Mediation Services of Buffalo LLC. handle your case with the respect and dignity you deserve.

Why Divorce Mediation vs. Litigation? By proadAccountId-366388 06 Nov, 2015 0 Comments Why Divorce Mediation vs. Litigation?... People call me daily wanting to know the benefits of Divorce mediation vs. Litigation. My first answer is less time, less stress and a fraction of the cost that of litigation. More importantly, you maintain control and craft an agreement that works best for your family. Mediation also keeps you out of court which is invaluable if you have children. Statistics also show much better post-divorce relationships which in turn is a much better experience in your divorced life. As a Divorce Mediator I will guide you down the path of divorce. What might be on that path could be anything that pertains to your personal situation. I will guide you through: parenting plans, child support, child custody, equitable distribution of assets and debts, property, taxes, alimony/spousal maintenance, retirement funds and anything else that pertains to your situation. As a mediator I will act as a neutral impartial party and inform you of NYS laws and entitlements under those laws. People feel as if mediation is only for those seeking a uncontested divorce, or uncontested legal separation, but I would disagree with that. Even if you're facing litigation or a contested divorce the numbers and entitlements typically wont change. Your attorneys are negotiating terms on your dollar that have already been predetermined through Child Support Standards Act CSSA regulations ,Equitable Distribution Laws and Spousal support standards and calculations. With that being said, Why would someone litigate spending much more time, stress and money to acquire the same end result? Stephen E. Felman Divorce Mediation Services of Buffalo LLC. Older Post
