Other Divorce Options
Going through a divorce does not mean that you must go to trial. There are other options available to you that can resolve various issues in a calm and respectful manner. Although you and your spouse may have negative feelings toward each other, you still have a chance to preserve a positive relationship that can benefit the entire family years down the road.
I am family law and divorce attorney Kenneth A. Winsberg, and I have helped numerous clients explore alternatives to trial during divorce. In addition to overwhelming emotional challenges, litigation can lead to expensive fees and time-consuming court battles that may be less effective in resolving your dispute. Based in Phoenix, Arizona, I dedicate my practice to finding positive and cost-effective solutions for you and your family.
Arbitration and Mediation
Whether your dispute involves custody, child and spousal support, or any other divorce-related issue, mediation and arbitration can allow both parties to address any disagreements efficiently and amicably. Using a trained neutral third party, both parties can present their arguments and relevant evidence in a private and confidential setting. I believe that parties using mediation are best served if represented by an attorney. I have seen too many cases where people try to save money and jointly hire the mediator without using attorneys. Some of these cases have resulted in disastrous outcomes. In cases where children are involved, I employ the services of social workers and psychologists to assess the best interests and needs of the child. Throughout the legal process, I will strive to establish an appropriate divorce settlement that is fair to both parties.
If you are wondering whether mediation or arbitration can help your divorce process, schedule an appointment with an experienced lawyer by calling 602-248-0274, extension 24 or 10. You can also contact me by e-mail.
