Mediation Support

Mediation is an alternative method of resolving disputes where the parties work with a trained mediator to resolve issues outside of the traditional court system. In Erie, Mediation Services are offered by the Bar Association and our office can assist you in contacting certified mediators with particular experience in family law matters.

Our offices provide support for individuals utilizing mediation by providing legal consultations to ensure the client is fully aware of the law and legal options, and the preparation and processing of the proper legal documents to implement the decisions reached in mediation.

This option is particularly well-suited for couples who:

• Desire privacy
• Want to navigate issues cooperatively and with mutual respect
• Need maximum flexibility in structuring a settlement
• Require minimal support and assistance in working together to reach a resolution
