I have on more than one occasion referred clients to Oliver Ross... It did not surprise me that I have received excellent feedback about his services. Situations were resolved to the satisfaction of both individuals and they were impressed with Oliver's skill and empathy. Dr Ross is my first choice for any divorce mediation.

 How Does Family Mediation Work?Upon the request of a family member, Out-of-Court Solutions explains the mediation process to the other family member(s), and invites them to participate. The mediation begins with the mediator explaining certain rules and procedures, and asking the participants to share their individual perspectives, concerns, and goals. Any sessions that follow involve a series of joint and separate conferences with the mediator helping participants communicate, negotiate, resolve issues, and reach agreement. Upon resolution, the mediator prepares a written agreement detailing the decisions made by the participants. What Family Situations Should Be Mediated? Mediation of the issues involved in divorce and legal separation reduces emotional stress, financial cost, and parental conflict. Couples make informed decisions about property rights, debts, custody, and support – without incurring the cost and adversity of two separate lawyers. Post-Divorce Parenting & Support Mediation greatly reduces the cost and expedites agreements concerning revisions of parenting plans, custody arrangements, and child support. Disagreements that arise between family members doing business together are resolved quickly, inexpensively, and privately through mediation. Relationships are likely to be normalized and organizational success is enhanced. Family mediation helps adult children identify and resolve the financial, medical, and other issues common to the care of elderly parents and other relatives. Privacy is assured and expense is minimized. Mediation reduces the probability of family litigation stemming from inheritance and estate issues. The adversarial aspects of these disputes that are common to court-based proceedings are eliminated, saving significant time and expense.
