MEDIATION

The law makes mediation mandatory prior to having a divorce hearing.
Mediation is a process whereby both sides with their attorneys go to an attorney mediator to resolve all matters in dispute. If successful, then the agreement between the parties is reduced to writing and the court incorporates the agreement into the final divorce decree.

Any thing said in the mediation is confidential and may not be used later in the event that the parties are not able to settle.

This law firm will aggressively negotiate a mediation agreement in the best interests of the firm’s clients.

Examples of mediation agreements

Mr. Hughes represented a spouse who had been married for less than three years. The other spouse had over 1.5 million dollars in separate property monies in the bank; the principal amount was separate property but the interest on the money was community.

Mr. Hughes aggressively negotiated a sum of money for his client many times beyond what his client would have ended up at a trial of the case. This mediation agreement was then incorporated into the final decree of divorce.

In another settlement negotiation, Mr. Hughes aggressively fought for his client whereby his client ended up with several pieces of rental property that gave his client future passive income and the sale of cattle resulted in a fair market sale and a sizable amount of monies into his client’s pocket. Again, this agreement was also incorporated into the final decree of divorce.
