Understanding Child Custody Mediation
Child custody mediation is a voluntary and confidential process in which a skilled mediator assists parents in reaching mutually agreeable child custody and visitation arrangements. Just like all family mediation services, child custody mediation requires the voluntary participation of both parents for it to be effective.
Child custody mediation is a constructive option for parents seeking to resolve custody disputes peacefully and cooperatively. It is also beneficial for parents who wish to modify existing custody agreements due to changing circumstances.
