Definitely. Mediation is often recommended for family disputes in California, as it encourages constructive dialogue between parties to reach amicable resolutions that both sides can be amenable to. During this process, a neutral mediator works with both parties to negotiate terms regarding property and asset division, child custody, child support, alimony, and more. The goal is to work these agreements out between the parties and potentially avoid court. Because of this, medication can often be more cost-effective and less contentious than litigation, but it depends on the case.
