MEDIATION offers spouses the opportunity to reach a fair divorce settlement without incurring the high cost of litigation. A neutral mediator, an expert in family law, guides the couple through a discussion of all issues involving separation and divorce: property division, alimony, custody, child support, taxes and debt. Once a tentative agreement is reached, a Marital Settlement Agreement, or contract, is prepared. Independent lawyers for each spouse review the contract before it is signed thus insuring its fairness and legal sufficiency. Mediation has been successfully used by many thousands of divorcing couples throughout the United States. It is worthy of your serious consideration.
This site provides information on divorce mediation and Maryland divorce law including property, alimony, custody and child support.
