    If you need a Pit Bull to win, call Attorney Lusk! I went from the bottom to the top with his counsel. Generations of knowledge is just a call away!

    Outstanding job had my best interest in mind. He took time out to explain all the details in my case. Jonathan was not a lawyer but a friend in need.

Alabama Divorce Attorneys Represent Clients' Interests in Mediation

Experienced family lawyers advise divorcing spouses in the Huntsville area in this alternative method of resolution

Under the best of circumstances, divorce is a stressful process. When couples litigate issues before a judge, the emotional toll and the expense increase exponentially. Fortunately, there are ways to simplify your divorce and reduce costs, while still achieving your goals for your future. For many couples, mediation is a useful tool for removing impediments to a settlement on important issues, such as child custody, child support, spousal support and the division of marital property. At Lusk & Lusk, our experienced attorneys have the knowledge and skill to represent clients in the Huntsville area and throughout Alabama in divorce mediation. We provide advice to clients involved in the mediation process so they can achieve a mutually acceptable, cost-effective resolution of their divorce issues.

Responsive Alabama advocates assist in the divorce mediation process

Courts may require divorcing couples to engage in mediation. Whether it's required or voluntary, however, mediation involves an impartial third party, the mediator, who meets with the spouses to work out a voluntary agreement but does not represent either party or advocate for their concerns. Over the course of several sessions, the mediator listens to the spouses, assesses the issues before them, and tries to guide them toward a mutually acceptable resolution but cannot impose an agreement on the couple: they need to reach a consensus.

We represent clients in mediation by gathering and producing information to be used, advocating for them during the process, and preparing and reviewing the settlement agreement that emerges. If mediation fails, we will represent you in litigation of any unresolved issues.

Dedicated divorce attorneys explain the benefits of mediation

A divorce mediator's goal is to guide parties toward consensus on issues such as child custody and support, spousal support, and property division, among others. There are many benefits to mediation:

  • Reduced costs
  • Flexible scheduling
  • Less time-consuming process than trial
  • Protection from adverse court orders
  • Privacy

Perhaps foremost, mediation allows you to control how your divorce proceeds rather than leaving decisions up to a judge. As experienced divorce attorneys, we can offer the advice and counsel you deserve when you choose this alternative method of resolution.

Skilled representation protects your interests

Before you consider mediation, you should speak with an attorney who has represented clients in this process. Mediators are not allowed to dispense legal advice, and, in fact, many divorce mediators throughout the country are not even attorneys so they might not fully understand the legal implications of a proposed settlement. At Lusk & Lusk, we help to ensure that you are fully prepared for your mediation sessions. We review your progress, carefully scrutinize all proposed agreements and draft counter proposals that protect your rights.
