Child Custody Mediation

Child custody mediation is a process where parents work with a neutral third party, called a mediator, to resolve disputes about child custody and visitation arrangements. The mediator facilitates communication, helping both parents express their concerns and preferences while guiding them toward a mutually beneficial agreement. This approach aims to minimize conflict and focus on the child's best interests. Unlike court decisions, mediation is typically less formal, more flexible, and can lead to a collaborative and tailored solution that both parents are more likely to accept and adhere to moving forward.
