Another post about preparing for family mediation

When you come to family mediation you will hopefully have your family law lawyer at your side, either virtually or in person. The other party will be there as well, as will their lawyer and of course, the dialogue will proceed with the assistance of a family mediator.

In advance of the mediation session you may think to yourself: “I will just let things play out as they must and because I was told by my lawyer that no one can force me to settle, I will play it by ear and see what happens. I can make decisions on the spot if I need to, and walk away if I want to. “
