No one likes going to court. Avoid the costs and the nerves associated with appearing in court by utilizing our private mediation services. Furthermore, the courts are log-jammed and it could be months before you are able to have your day in court. Divorce is hard enough, why prolong it?
Couples who mediate their divorce or post-divorce issues are generally happier with the outcome because they are making the final decision instead of having it slammed down their throat by a judge. Additionally, the American Bar Association states that 70-80% of all mediations end in agreement because a great mediator is able to work with both sides and help reach a compromise.
One of the many services our office offers is mediation. Our office has 2 separate conference rooms, which allows ease and comfort for the parties during mediation. Our managing and founding partner Steven M. Ellsworth has over 30 years of experience in family law and has served as a Judge Pro Tem in the Family Law Division of the Maricopa County Superior Court. Mr. Ellsworth also is a Certified Family Law Specialist, Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, Fellow of the International Academy of Family Lawyers, and a certified arbitrator by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers. We also have two other attorneys in our office who can mediate and do so at lower rates.
If you are looking to mediate any pre-decree or post-decree matters, please contact our office today by calling (480) 635-8700.
