Mediators — Certified, Bilingual Divorce Mediation | Family Matters Law Group

Mediators · Neutral settlement

A settlement both sides can live with — in English or in Spanish

Mediation is faster and less costly than litigation, and the agreements are built to hold up in court. Both of our attorneys are Florida Supreme Court certified mediators, serving parties with or without their own lawyers — in English or entirely in Spanish.

Family Matters Law Group
Two ways to use a mediator

Mediator-only, or your lawyer at the table

Mediation isn’t one thing. You can hire us as the neutral mediator for both parties, or — if we’re representing you — have your attorney at the table with you at someone else’s mediation. Same skill set, two very different roles. We’ll make sure you’re in the right one.

Bilingual by design. This is a South Florida firm. We mediate in English or entirely in Spanish — se habla español — so no one at the table is negotiating in their second language on the biggest decisions of their life.

Why mediation works

  • Faster and less expensive than a contested trial
  • You keep control of the outcome instead of handing it to a judge
  • Agreements you help build have a higher rate of compliance than orders imposed from the bench
  • Private — what’s said in mediation stays in mediation

Mediation is billed hourly on a sliding scale based on combined household income — the exact rates live on our pricing page, in one place, so you know before you book.
