Divorce Does Not Have to Be Emotional

Divorce does not have to be emotional, expensive, or time consuming- if mediated by an experienced retired divorce judge, who will compassionately listen to both sides.

Having negotiated and granted hundreds of divorces, this retired judge is able to quickly negotiate all marital issues including custody, visitation, child support, alimony, pensions, vehicles, bank accounts, credit cards, marital home, investment properties, businesses, and person properties. The Judge will also prepare legal property settlement agreements.

And the best part is mediation can solve all issues within weeks instead of years, and it is conducted in the calm setting of an office as opposed to the stressful world of a court room.
