In this episode of Advocating for Dads, Jana Jones and Matt Sky explore the role of mediation in family law. Jana, a seasoned family law attorney, explains how mediation offers a valuable alternative to courtroom litigation, enabling parties to resolve disputes through the guidance of a neutral mediator instead of relying on a judge's ruling. She discusses how evaluating each party's positions can help determine whether mediation is a suitable option, noting that cases with relative agreement on issues like property division, child custody, and support are often better suited for mediation. On the other hand, she highlights that cases with significant conflicts, such as disputes over custody or alimony, may be less ideal for this approach. Tune in to discover how mediation can be a powerful tool for families navigating complex legal challenges.
