Mediation

     “Parents know their children better than anyone else.  It only makes sense that divorcing parents try to work together to develop their own parenting plan.”  Dr. John E. Northman

Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution process in which divorcing parents work out their own agreement with the assistance of a trained mediator.

Such parents typically have a cordial relationship which may even be quite amicable.  They may be in an excellent position to engage in productive discussions aimed at resolving issues in their divorce.

Parents know their children better than anyone else.  As a trained mediator, Dr. Northman facilitates the discussions that can help divorcing parents resolve issues and work toward a parenting plan agreement appropriate for their individual children.  By taking responsibility for shaping and creating their own parenting plan, parents feel the satisfaction of continued active involvement and decision-making in their children’s lives.

 

For additional information or a complimentary introductory telephone consultation regarding mediation, you may phone Dr. Northman at (716) 833-5930.
