WHAT IS MEDIATION
BENEFITS OF MEDIATION
Save Money: Avoiding the court process and paying two litigation lawyers can make resolving your case much
less expensive.
Save Time: You can start immediately. Mediation can produce settlement in weeks compared to waiting up to 3 years in court for a trial.
Binding Results: Once agreement is reached, it can be enforced by the court. As both spouses have agreed on the outcome, they both feel invested in the final agreement and are thus more likely to comply with all its terms.
Voluntary: Either party can terminate mediation at any time and still go to court. If mediation produces only a partial agreement, or no agreement at all, then the parties can still use the court system and their individual attorneys to resolve any remaining issues.
Experience: Nathan L. Rosenberg has been an Attorney since 1975, with emphasis on Divorce Law cases and has more than 30 years' experience with the way the local courts handle divorce issues in Riverside County. To-date, Mr. Rosenberg's 26 years of legal experience in local family court matters has resulted in dozens of successful mediations without a single failure to bring the parties to final agreements.
Preventive: You can anticipate future problems and make your own arrangements to deal with them, rather than submitting to the determinations of a judge whose understanding of your issues may be minimal, and who can only react to problems after they have become unmanageable.
Less Destructive: Mediation Keeps control of family problems in the family. Particularly when children are involved, parents can often best work out custody arrangements with the help of our attorney and therapist mediators. Financial issues, such as the amount of support, control or sale of the family residence, value of the business, or payment of debts can also be resolved through mediation without the heightened levels of animosity and upset which contested cases bring. While mediation may not be suitable in every situation, it often can resolve all issues without having a "winner" and a "loser".
Are There Times When Mediation is Not a Good Idea? Mediation works best when both parties are able to fully express their needs and interests and are capable of following through on any agreements that they reach. Mediation may not be the best choice if there are concerns about domestic violence, child abuse, mental illness or abuse of drugs or alcohol.

WHAT IS MEDIATION?
Normally, disputes are resolved by each party paying a lawyer to represent their adverse interests.
Some cases are resolved quickly by negotiation. Others take months or years of expensive pretrial preparation (depositions, interrogatories, court motions, demand and counter demand
letters, meetings, and many, many telephone calls) before a Family Court judge makes a decision.
In mediation the parties voluntarily meet in the privacy of our Office with one trained, experienced neutral attorney/mediator. The mediator's job is to help negotiate a settlement that is fair and acceptable to both sides. After a written agreement is signed, it can be enforced by the court. The goal of mediation is to manage effectively the emotions of separation and divorce so that disputing parties can better communicate. Better communication leads to better agreements. Mediation may be an effective way for you to settle the disputed issues of your legal conflicts.

It is important to remember that family conflicts are natural and normal. Strong feelings are not unusual when there is a separation or divorce. However, conflicts that linger over time can make a family's adjustment to separation or divorce much more difficult. Settlements that are reached by one party winning and the other losing rarely last and can create additional conflict.
