A more collaborative, affordable alternative to litigation
Through divorce mediation, you and your spouse work together with a neutral third party, your mediator, to negotiate and reach agreements and put together the legal paperwork associated with your divorce. Rather than litigating your divorce, we believe in a collaborative approach to divorce that keeps you in control of major family decisions. After all, a courtroom judge doesn’t know or have the time to understand your family dynamic.
Whether you’re looking for convenient online divorce mediation, in-person mediation, document preparation services, or help with custody and visitation agreements, the mediation experts at West Coast Family Mediationare available to assist you. All of our mediators have their law degrees, extensive mediation training and most also hold their CDFA® certification.
