Mediated Child Support Agreements

Mediated Child Support Agreements are arrangements made between parents, with the help of a neutral mediator, to determine how much financial support one parent will provide for their child after separation or divorce. This process encourages open communication and collaboration, allowing parents to tailor the support to their child's needs and their financial situations. Unlike court-imposed orders, these agreements tend to be more flexible and can be adjusted if circumstances change. Once finalized, they can be submitted to a court for approval, ensuring they are legally recognized and enforceable.
