Family Law

Diane is a Certified Family Court Mediator. This avenue can be a great method to resolve family law disputes. Most people consider their children and their marriage to be of utmost importance, providing structure and meaning to their lives. Going to court means losing control of decisions regarding marriage and children, which can be frightening. However, parties can use mediation to reach agreements on these significant and emotional issues.

Mediation not only allows the spouses and parents to control the ultimate resolution of their disputes but also enables them to control the process by which these resolutions are reached. Mediation helps the parties to reach resolutions that they may not have considered in traditional court. It also enables both sides to move forward with cooperation.
