Most family law cases, especially divorce matters, utilize mediation to attempt to solve the parties’ contested issues. With more than 160 years of combined experience, our lawyers can protect your rights and interests throughout the mediation process. Our firm’s family law attorneys are also qualified to serve as mediators and neutral third parties.
What Is Mediation?
Mediation is a collaborative process where the parties in a dispute attempt to resolve their legal conflict. Using a mediator as a third-party neutral to guide them through the process, the parties work together to resolve their legal dispute. It provides participants a chance to work together to provide solutions that work for the parties. In the mediation process, parties can choose to have legal representation.
Mediation As A Means For Reaching A Divorce Settlement
In the context of a divorce matter, two individuals may choose to participate in mediation before they hire their own attorneys, and sometimes before the divorce complaint is even filed. In other circumstances, spouses may participate in mediation with their respective attorneys after a divorce matter is initiated, sometimes even after a trial date has been set.
In either event, it is important that the mediator chosen to mediate the divorce case is well-versed in Nevada family law. Mediators do not just try to help two parties communicate. They can offer valuable insight to litigants about the strengths and weaknesses of their positions on the issues involved in their cases. If the case involves alimony, for example, a mediator should be familiar with the Nevada alimony statute as well as any recent case law that may impact a party’s case.
With the right mediator, individuals can save a tremendous amount of time and money that would otherwise be spent litigating. Further, mediation allows parties to exercise a level of control over their futures that would not occur in a courtroom.
