Divorce
Many mediators are attorneys with experience in the area of law they mediate. The crucial difference is that attorneys will represent the interests of one party in a divorce and a mediator is neutral. Mediators are trained to identify the interests of each party and facilitate effective communication that leads to resolution of conflict. Mediators may give legal information to participants but do not give legal advice to either party. You are encouraged to consult with independent counsel for legal advice. In most of the divorce mediations we conduct, attorneys are not present during mediation sessions. If either party wishes to have an attorney present during negotiations, we recommend using a Collaborative Process.

Premarital Agreement
If you are planning to get married or enter a domestic partnership, you may want to consider exploring your expectations and intentions regarding property you own or obligations you owe as well as property you may acquire during marriage. Washington’s community property law is designed to create equity in ownership when couples accumulate property but sometimes results are unexpected. You may be reluctant to discuss prenuptial agreements because it feels like planning for divorce just when you are entering into wedded bliss. I believe that the discussion, whether or not an agreement is the goal, can help to strengthen your marriage because you have the opportunity to openly explore your attitudes and expectations around finances and spending. I see too many couples split because their money personalities don’t mesh and they never addressed their differences in a healthy way. If you can talk about the tough stuff now it will help keep the communication flowing throughout your marriage.
Legal Separation
Altering property rights by agreement has implications in the case of a divorce or legal separation but also on the death of a spouse. Estate planning will address how your property is distributed on death and a prenuptial or post-nuptial agreement clarifies what property is in the estate.
