What kinds of things are discussed and decided during mediation?
Everything that is discussed and decided upon in a trial or collaborative divorce proceeding will be discussed during mediation, though these same decisions may be easier to make. Issues that may be discussed include division of assets, alimony and child support, child custody and visitation schedules, the division of debts, protection of estates, and decisions regarding future interactions, among a number of other divorce proceedings. A mediator supplies possible solutions and compromises to disputes that may arise during proceedings and encourages calm collaboration in place of hostility and noncooperation.
