Skilled Divorce Mediator in Shreveport
If you are going through a divorce and believe that you can amicably communicate with your spouse when making decisions, mediation may be a beneficial alternative dispute-resolution method. Divorce mediation, arbitration and collaborative divorce counsel provide multiple benefits, such as reduced stress, a faster judicial process and emphasis on the children’s best interests. For the best results, you should seek the advice of an experienced Louisiana family law attorney. Attorney Ginger West Johnson is a certified mediator and takes into account your needs and concerns while helping you find workable solutions.
Types of Arbitration
In family law, mediation is the single most powerful tool available to divorcing spouses to resolve their differences expeditiously. You work through concerns with the assistance of an impartial, trained mediator. Both parties need to attend the talks and be willing to remain civil toward each other and the resolution team. The number of meetings depends on the issues that need to be resolved and the time that is needed to prepare for the meetings. An experienced attorney can advise you throughout the process when discussing the following areas of concern:
- Civil mediation
- Child support
- Child custody
- Visitation
- Spousal support
- Property division
The goal is to conclude with agreements on specific issues. Once all the issues involved in the divorce have been resolved, a settlement agreement is drafted that summarizes the conclusions that the spouses have reached. Both spouses sign the agreement, and it is provided to the court for approval.
