Mediation

Working toward Common Solutions

Mediation is a tool that allows you and your spouse to work together to reach common solutions about contentious issues during a divorce. Instead of litigating these issues in court, family law courts encourage couples to resolve these issues through divorce mediation and arbitration. With the assistance of a neutral mediator, spouses can resolve issues related to child support, child custody, alimony, and property division.

At the Law Offices of Gerald M. Gallant, we act as neutral mediators and attorneys during mediation. Our firm assists spouses throughout Southern Connecticut in mediating disputes. To learn more about divorce mediation and arbitration, contact attorney Gerald M. Gallant for a free initial consultation.

Better Ways to Solve Problems

Divorce mediation and collaborative divorce facilitate agreements that reflect the intentions of you and your spouse. They foster an environment where people think creatively seeking resolution of important issues. Unlike an order pushed on you by a judge, most families find these agreements easier to live with in the long-term.

As a divorce mediation lawyer, Gerald M. Gallant balances an independent approach with aggressive advocacy. Mediation serves as an efficient way to resolve disputes related to the division of complex marital estates and child custody. We provide a fresh objective perspective during mediation, while making sure to protect your rights.

Binding and Non-Binding Agreements

You and your spouse can agree to make divorce mediation binding or non-binding. When you agree to binding mediation, any decision reached is final. If you fail to resolve issues during non-binding mediation, you can bring these issues into court.
