What is family law mediation?
Family law mediation is a method used to resolve family quarrels. In family mediation a third party mediator like Mathewson Law P.C. helps the two parties smooth out their differences and reach agreements on various points of conflict. While family mediation can save the parties time and costs associated with trial, the decisions reached are not legally binding, as the process is informal.
