If you are at the crossroads between deciding to move forward with a mediator or an attorney, this may be a great article for you to read. While it is not focusing on mediators in family law, it is focusing on the distinct differences between lawyers and mediators; their style, their mindset and their basic nature. It is a great article for lawyers thinking of adding mediation to their practice too, it isn’t as easy as saying “okay, I am now a mediator,” there are deeply rooted idiosyncrasies that need to be considered by an attorney who has been practicing for years…if you love going in for the kill, mediation is probably not for you.
