What are the benefits of divorce mediation?

In Texas, cases that involve contested child custody or visitation matters will almost always go to mediation. Our firm encourages clients to resolve these matters in mediation. The benefits are many and include the following:

  • Mediation is less expensive and more efficient. Litigation usually adds time and expense.
  • Mediation promotes positive ways to resolve disputes rather than an adversarial approach.
  • A neutral third party helps both parties reach amicable agreements.
  • In mediation, the power to decide remains in your hands, rather than the hands of a judge.
  • Parties are more likely to abide by mediation agreements than court orders.
  • Mediation can create or maintain good will between the parties. This is good for the children.

Divorce mediation can help your children

Judy works with many parents who want to share equal time with their children rather than implementing the standard Texas possession (visitation) order. Judy has worked out numerous flexible arrangements. In almost every one of these cases, the flexible parenting plans have met the needs of the families, they have not required modification by the court and the children are thriving.

Mediation may not work for everyone. Judy provides vigorous litigation representation when necessary.
