Mediation
Divorce mediation is a voluntary and confidential process that helps couples resolve divorce-related issues in a respectful and cost effective way. Rather than relying on court decisions, a neutral mediator helps facilitate productive communication and guides parties toward mutually agreeable solutions on matters including parenting, custody, property division, and financial support.
Arbitration
Arbitration is a structured, private process used to resolve disputes outside of the courtroom. In family law matters, arbitration can provide a more efficient and flexible alternative to traditional litigation by allowing parties to present disputed issues to a neutral third party, the arbitrator, who will hear the matter and then issue a decision.
Special Master
A Special Master is a neutral professional appointed by the Court to assist families in resolving ongoing disputes and implementing court orders in high-conflict or complex cases. Special Masters assist parents in addressing issues such as parent-time disputes, communication difficulties, decision-making disagreements, and other co-parenting concerns without the need for repeated court appearances. By providing guidance, recommendations, and timely decisions within the scope of the Special Master Order, a Special Master helps families reduce conflict, improve communication, and focus on the best interests of their children.
