Mediation

Sometimes, litigation is not the right solution for your family. The mediation process consists of the two parties sitting down with a family law mediator (with or without attorneys present) to resolve the outstanding issues amicably and without the need for litigation. Private mediation is different from court-ordered mediation in that the parties choose to engage in the process. Mediators help you work towards a resolution of any and all aspects of your case. A mediator cannot make decisions for you or order either of the parties to accept terms. The mediation process belongs to the parties. The role of the mediator is to help the parties move towards a settlement. The attorneys at Ross & Calandrillo, LLC are equipped to handle all angles of the mediation process.

Our attorneys are qualified mediators pursuant to the New Jersey Rules of Court and have engaged in extensive court-approved mediation training. This training, coupled with years of family law experience, makes our attorneys the right choice for your private mediation needs. For a consultation to discuss the mediation process and how our firm can help, contact Ross & Calandrillo, LLC.

What is mediation?

Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process in which divorcing or separating couples work with a neutral third party, the mediator, to reach mutually acceptable agreements on the issues that matter most to them. These issues may include child custody and parenting time, child support, alimony, division of property, and any other matters related to the dissolution of the marriage.

Unlike a judge, the mediator does not impose decisions or dictate outcomes. Instead, the mediator’s role is to facilitate productive discussions, help clarify the needs and concerns of both parties, and guide them toward solutions that work for their unique family situation.

Mediation empowers the parties to stay in control of the decision-making process, rather than placing these deeply personal matters in the hands of the court.

What are the benefits of mediation?

Mediation offers a number of significant advantages over traditional litigation, particularly for families who want to minimize conflict and protect their relationships moving forward. One of the most notable benefits is that mediation is typically less costly and less time-consuming than going to court. Because the parties work together to reach agreements, they can often resolve their differences more efficiently. Mediation also provides a private, confidential setting, so sensitive family matters stay out of the public courtroom.

Perhaps most importantly, mediation encourages cooperation rather than confrontation, fostering a spirit of compromise that can be especially beneficial when children are involved. When parents can communicate effectively and work together, it often leads to more durable agreements and a healthier co-parenting relationship in the future.

At Ross & Calandrillo, LLC, we believe mediation gives families the best opportunity to craft solutions tailored to their unique needs, with dignity, respect, and compassion.
