Mediation and Settlements in Long Island

Nassau County Divorce Lawyer

Mediating a divorce or legal separation usually affords the parties the least contentious path toward resolving end-of-marriage issues, not to mention the fastest and most economical one. Spouses typically each have legal representation but rather than appearing in court, they agree to appear before a mediator who may prove invaluable in helping them arrive at acceptable terms on matters such as: equitable distribution, spousal support, custody, and visitation. If mediation is not feasible, settlement of the divorce or legal separation brokered by the parties' attorneys is still generally preferable to litigation.
