Austin Divorce Mediation Attorney
Why choose the path of divorce mediation?
Divorce mediation is basically a process where the opposing parties involved in a
divorce meet with a third party mediator in order to come up with solutions that can be mutually agreed upon to the issues that must be resolved. The parties may be represented by an
Austin divorce lawyer during mediation or can represent themselves. At the end of a successful mediation, the mediator creates a legally binding settlement agreement, essentially bringing any disputes to a conclusion.
If no agreement can be made, the parties have not waived their rights to seek resolution in a judicial setting, and may proceed with any other methods of resolving their issues. The divorce attorneys of Zinda & Davis PLLC handle all areas of divorce proceedings such as child custody,
child support,
property division, complex business division, financials, qualified domestic relations orders (QDRO),
Grandparent's rights,
military divorces and international issues.
Benefits of Choosing Mediation for Your Austin Divorce
If you are considering filing for divorce and are wondering if mediation would be useful for you and your spouse to reach agreements regarding the issues that pertain, consider these plus points:
- Typically faster than traditional judicial methods
- No need to appear in court
- Determine your own compromise
- Initiate open communication
- Avoid legal battles and the fees that are associated
- Turn collaboration into cooperation
- Children's best interests can be highlighted
Mediation resolves disputes quickly, often with more creative and satisfying results than are available in court. Many times, when spouses are able to come to agreements on issues together, the need for child custody modifications,
child support modifications or
spousal support modifications in the future is significantly less. While this is not a workable method for everyone, if you are able to communicate with one another and are willing to use mediation, it can be an effective way to get a more favorable result for you and your family's future well being from your divorce.
