Parenting Help During and After a Divorce
Every member of your family is impacted by a divorce. Divorce brings with it many changes that can be difficult, especially for your children. The way that you parent during this transition is one very important way that you can set your kids up to move forward in a positive and healthy way. This can be challenging, especially if you and your divorcing spouse have a relationship with high conflict. Your kids deserve the best from both of you and Johnson Mediation offers parenting support services to help you navigate this difficult experience.
Divorce mediation can be a highly effective way to settle the important aspects of your divorce and is now one of the most frequently used methods in our country. It can work for the vast majority of couples, offering a less expensive, less contentious and less time consuming option than proceeding via the traditional court system. Divorce mediation can help you resolve many issues in a divorce including the division of property, debts and assets, development of a parenting plan (or custody agreement), and negotiation of spousal and/or child support. Mediation is most successful when both parties are willing to compromise and listen to the other’s point of view to find solutions that will work well for all parties. Johnson Mediation specializes in comprehensive divorce mediation services and can guide you through the entire divorce process, offering tools and resources so that you can make informed decisions about your future.
Divorce is difficult for all involved – and when there are children involved this difficulty is compounded. Often, when custody issues cannot be resolved easily, a judge may decide to refer the case for what is called a Social Early Neutral Evaluation (SENE) process that is a confidential and relatively quick way to resolve the custody dispute. This process uses two professionals, generally one man and one woman. One of the professionals is a lawyer and the other a child specialist. Johnson Mediation offers comprehensive divorce mediation services and can complete a Social Early Neutral Evaluation when requested by the court system.
If your divorce has created questions about custody of your children, Johnson Mediation can help you. Custody can be a very complex aspect of divorce, and to feel confident about how you answer the questions pertaining to it, you should make sure that you have a qualified, competent advocate on your side, like the team at Johnson Mediation.
