Mediation
Mediation is a form of conflict resolution dsigned to find an agreed solution to an issue rather than developing arguments against one another. Not only does it encourage the parties to try and find common ground to reach an acceptable solution, studies have shown that resolutions reached during mediation last much longer, often without additional conflict. And, when children are involved, mediation guides parents to focus on the needs of their children rather than on hurting one another. Mediation is conducted by a Mediator who is a neutral third party who has been specifically trained to guide the parties toward a satisfactory resolution to their particular issue.
Types of Mediation
Pre-Litigation Mediation
Pre-Litigation Mediation
Pre-Litigation Mediation
Pre-Litigation Mediation (also known as Early Dispute Resolution) is geared towards those parties who would rather spend their time, energy and money working toward a solution to their conflict that will not add to the hurt and frustration already being experienced. Litigation is a turtle process in a hare world. Pre-litigation mediation can help slash the cost and time of going to court. Whether the issue is divorce, property distribution, custody, parenting time or child support, the parties will work directly with the mediator to walk through each and every issue to be decided. The mediator does not represent either party, but will guide them through their concerns to help find an agreeable solution. The mediator will draft the necessary court documents as well and file them with the court. Pre-litigation mediation allows the parties to make decisions about their own family rather than allow a judge to make the final decisions for them. Hamilton County Mediators offers hour rates, Flat Fee rates and Reduced Fee Options as well.
Traditional Mediation
Pre-Litigation Mediation
Pre-Litigation Mediation
Nearly all counties in central Indiana require parties to utilize mediation to attempt resolve issues prior to heading to court to litigate their divorce, legal separation, custody, parenting time or child support matter. In this instance, the parties are typically represented by counsel, but not always. Usually, the mediator travels back and forth between two rooms (or virtual rooms) working with each party and their attorney. The mediator will focus on those remaining issues that the parties have not been able to agree upon, often pushing the parties to think "outside the box" when searching for a resolution that will fit their particular family's needs.
