Mediation

Before entering into mediation, be sure to consult your review attorney so you have all of the information you need to move forward. This ensures that you will have a consultant throughout the entire process to touch base with if any problems occur. Next, you want to find a skilled mediator who can help you mutually devise a settlement agreement that both parties can live with.

Once a mediator gets you almost to the finish line, it’s time for a review attorney to take over. A review attorney should fairly and competently fold all of your hard work, generally called a “Memorandum of Understanding,” into a complete and legally enforceable Marital Settlement Agreement. If the MOU comes back with significant flaws, it will be necessary to contact your attorney to sort them out through a renegotiation of the terms.

After you have your “Marital Settlement Agreement,” you will need a skilled attorney to get you in and out of court for your uncontested Divorce, and on your way to your new life!
