Best Divorce Lawyers in Wellington, FL

It is our goal to mediate the terms to be incorporated into the final written agreement in the most efficient amount of time, usually 2-6 hours. Please understand that this depends on the issues to be resolved, how complicated the issues are, and whether the parties are in agreement on none/some/most/all of the issues. The more issues that are unresolved going into mediation, the longer mediation can take. Regardless, mediation takes less time than litigation and trial.

Once the parties have reached agreement on the issues, the mediator will prepare a final written legal document that the parties can file with the court or take to their respective attorneys for review. Even if attorneys are not hired to handle your divorce, both parties may still consult with an attorney to review the settlement agreement to insure the parties understand their legal rights and responsibilities.

However, attorneys may be necessary depending on the particular circumstances of your situation.
