Burns Mediation Information

Unlike litigation, which looks backward and seeks to assess blame for past injuries, mediation requires you to look forward so you can develop an agreement that resolves key issues such as parenting of your children, child and spousal support and the distribution of your assets and liabilities. And, unlike litigation, which encourages you to establish hard positions based on the belief that there is a winner (and loser), mediation is designed to help each of you to examine your goals and interests in order to find a solution that works for both of you. Our role in this process is to help you communicate better, to offer suggestions or ideas of ways to resolve your conflict, to provide you with legal information when needed and to make sure each of you is considering the long-term consequences of your decisions. {This is considered Attorney Advertising by some Bar Associations. Prior results do not imply future similar results. Communication does not imply Attorney-Client relationship.}
