DIVORCE TRANSITION - Especially the children - appointments for Transition Agreements are
made on an urgent basis- including weekends and evening appointments

 
Divorce is painful for everyone in the family.  Nothing can alter that fact.  However how you plan for the transition can impact the extent to which the family will suffer. While this may seem basic, it is not necessarily easy to accomplish, especially when spouses are at loggerheads with each other and most often extremely angry.  This is a good time to use a mediator and to choose one who specializes in transition related issues; who can guide you in a proactive way.
 Here are some frequently asked questions invoking serious considerations.
1)      How do we tell the kids?
2)      Who should move out?
3)      How do I secure my custody rights with the kids if I move out?
4)      When can we sell the house?
5)      Should we sell the house?
6)      Is “nesting” a good idea in our case?
7)      How do I find an attorney, which can take weeks and get interim help?
8)      If I move out how do I secure support?
9)      What happens to our joint bank accounts while we transition.
 
The List is endless…… and often unique to your own circumstances.
 
Mediation is very helpful for qualified couples because it can help set you on a path that is less traumatic with a much less likelihood for severe conflict.
 
Private Court™ Mediators have the expertise to guide you in the right direction; to support you and hold both your hands through this very awkward time.


Transition appointments are granted on an urgent basis.

Children and Divorce

Your children will need your help more than ever during divorce and its resulting transitions.  This may be an enormous task for you, especially because you are anxious, sad and angry. The negative impact of divorce on your children is, to some extent, within your control.  Place their needs at the fore by following some basic guidelines. It is very important to explain the divorce to your children with reassurance and compassion.  Children need the truth and it should be given in a blame free way.  It is usually a good idea for the parents to plan how they are going to tell their kids and  ..................................................... read more.....

The impact of divorce on your child depends almost entirely on how you, the parents, conduct yourselves during the process.  While you may not be able to save your marriage, it is possible to end it with integrity.
