Divorce Mediators are particularly useful as facilitators for individuals engaged in mediation as they thoroughly understand the process as well as the laws in the Massachusetts courts. As people reach new understandings it is possible to reach agreements that will prevent future disputes. Parker Mediation will teach you how to manage conflict effectively without resorting to court litigation. The conflict resolution skills you learn will serve you in the future, particularly if you continue to parent children together.
There are several topics that must be covered in each divorce. At Parker Mediation, each subject is discussed with the parties in the order most important to them. Typical mediations begin with discussion about the children’s schedule, starting with what’s working for them now and what changes will occur as parents separate. Together we develop a temporary parenting plan that maximizes the strengths of the family, so that both parents can participate as much as possible. Once the parenting plan is fully developed the parties work out a plan for the financial support of the children. Massachusetts child support guidelines are calculated to offer the parties assistance in making financial arrangements for the children.
