An Overview of Family Mediation
Family mediation is a process to help spouses come to an agreement over issues relating to child custody, visitation, and financial issues, and therefore avoid a long and expensive contested divorce. The couple works with a neutral mediator to develop options and a plan that works best for everyone.
The goal of family mediation is to find solutions for all issues, so that the family once separated can move forward. It provides an opportunity for both parents to express their concerns and brainstorm in a safe setting. It provides an opportunity for both parents to express their concerns in a safe setting.
Family Mediation is:
- A stress reliever during difficult times
- Confidential
- Endorsed by family courts
- A peaceful forum to discuss your opinions and options
- A powerful communication tool
- Facilitated at all times
Family Mediation is not:
- Therapy or marriage counseling
- A place to lay blame on others
I was chosen to write, as a respected Mediator in RI, the Chapter entitled "Mediation and Other Dispute Resolution Alternatives" in a book to be published and offered for purchase to RI Lawyers and Professionals. The Book is entitled "A Practical Guide to Divorce in Rhode Island" and is to be published by Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education, Inc. of Boston Mass.
