Mediation vs. Divorce Court

Mediation — or having a neutral third party listen to your divorce case and make a decision — can provide favorable resolutions. Attorney Fischer can discuss the benefits of sitting down and outlining agreements concerning every aspect of your divorce. You can mediate any divorce-related decision without the involvement of a judge.

Court can be both emotionally and financially draining. By discussing your issues in a friendly manner, you may be able to reduce the stress of your divorce. And, since mediation is often quicker than court proceedings, the costs can be much lower. Don’t hesitate to discuss the mediation process with attorney Betsy A. Fischer.

Betsy handled both of my divorces and did a great job of keeping me calm, steady and focused. My second ex’s attorney described her as “tough as nails” which is a great recommendation coming from opposing counsel.
