Boca Raton Divorce Mediation Lawyer
Divorce can be one of the most difficult experiences of a person’s life. Unfortunately, when many people imagine divorce, they think of heated courtroom exchanges and many months of expensive and tedious family court proceedings. While some couples do choose to litigate their divorces, and many divorces will require some measure of formal legal review in litigation, it is possible to streamline your divorce significantly by taking advantage of alternative dispute resolution.

What Is Divorce Mediation?
Alternative dispute resolution allows a divorcing couple to streamline their divorce, privately resolve some issues that a judge would otherwise settle, and customize various aspects of their divorce agreements. The process requires both spouses to meet privately with their respective attorneys and collaboratively negotiate terms for their divorce. Mediation is a specific form of alternative dispute resolution that unfolds under the direction of a mediator, a neutral third party who helps the couple draft their divorce order.
The mediator cannot offer either spouse any direct legal advice, nor may they have any conflicts of interest that would favor either spouse. The mediator is typically a family lawyer who has experience drafting divorce agreements. They can answer general questions about the legal statutes that apply to divorce and will keep conversations focused and productive.
As long as both spouses are willing to try it, mediation can help them both save a tremendous amount of time and money on dissolution proceedings. When a divorcing couple takes their case before a judge, it can potentially take months to resolve, and the judge has the final say on every aspect of their divorce order. Even if a divorcing spouse is convinced that a judge will see things their way, this is never a guarantee. Resolving as much as you can privately in mediation acts as a springboard in divorce proceedings, dramatically reducing the time the spouses must spend in litigation.

Myles was excellent during my divorce and custody case. I had a very high-stress, and complicated situation, and not only was he efficient, but he kept me at ease throughout the entire process.- Former Client

I wasn’t familiar with the process of child custody but I must say not only did Myles and his team direct me properly but it was a process that wasn’t money motivated. Very professional group, I was constantly informed of any step or move needed to be made. When you have someone in your corner that understands the importance of family it makes the situation a ton easier, thank you Myles and Johnson group for everything!- Dwight

I worked with Elizabeth and she did way more for me than I thought possible. I was in a bad situation when I came in. She took my case then proceeded to go above and beyond until the very end. With them working my case my stress about the whole thing was pretty much gone.- Nick D.

I called Johnson Law Group extremely frustrated and stressed with the process of my custody case. From the consultation to every conversation after, Elizabeth went out of her way to make sure that i was comfortable with all the matters and decisions.
