Pre-Suit Divorce by Agreement

Is the destructiveness and devastation of a divorce or life partner break up truly inevitable? There is a better way. Many couples have already agreed on getting a divorce and just need help in resolving some of their financial, child and family issues.

Although they have not been able to work them out, they believe that if someone could help them “talk to each other” instead of “talking at each other”, that they can resolve their issues instead of fighting them out in Court .

Because they do not want to deal with the expense of litigation, many couples are now meeting for mediation before going to court or instead of going to Court.

The process is completely confidential. Florida Mediation & Arbitration, LLC provides a contemporary way for divorcing couples or life partners to work together without going to court.

We are Family Mediators specifically trained to provide non-lawyer services in a mediated, not litigated setting to Florida residents. Through this mediated approach, the family relationship is maintained intact, sometimes even strengthening relationships and lessening the emotional, financial and combative stress that a divorce or separation can cause.

We coordinate face-to-face meetings between couples to encourage communication and full disclosure of facts and information helping couples with a mediated way that they and their family needs to move from contentiousness, bitterness or even impasse to a healthier, post-breakup relationship. In many instances, we help you write up an agreement which resolves all of your financial and child visitation an support issues. You both then take that agreement to Court and file it with the Court’s own Self Help Kit, or for a reduced fee you can have an attorney file the documents for you.
