If you choose to pursue divorce mediation, attorney Stephen R. Olson can act as your mediator — a neutral third-party in negotiations, not representing either spouse.
Attorney Olsen also works as a consulting lawyer in mediation and other alternative dispute resolution techniques, such as collaborative divorce. If you go to mediation on your own, you can come back to him with questions and have an experienced eye look over your agreement.
Working as a mediator in divorce cases requires careful attention. A mediator must maintain neutrality between both parties and is not allowed to advise them on what they should do. As you and your spouse work out the agreement that is right for you, your mediator will provide guidance as to what is legally possible.
At the same time, your mediator must be mindful of each party's situation and provide guidance as to what is at risk for each party in a given situation. When acting as a mediator, we believe it is in the best interest of all parties to explain the pros and cons of any settlement plans. We will make sure you have the information you need to make intelligent, informed decisions regarding your future.
If you think that mediation may be the best way for you to resolve your divorce and come up with a plan for your family, it is time to find out more. We offer reduced-rate initial consultations in all family law cases. Contact us today for more information.
