Post-Divorce Mediation
Many divorce decrees do not cover all the eventualities that occur in life among divorced parents or something may have happened that could not be anticipated. Frequently these changes create issues around schedules, communication and finances.
Elder & Adult Family Mediation
Aging and living with a disability can cause significant changes in an individual’s needs and the roles of family members. The inevitable effects of aging combined with past family dynamics can be stressful for families and can impact their ability to make the decisions necessary to accommodate changes and transitions.
LGBT Domestic Partnership Mediation
When a relationship or domestic partnership ends, important decisions must be made around such issues as property, finances, and parenting, in order to allow you and your partner to move forward separately. Because the law affords little or no protection for LGBT families, mediation can be a valuable resource for LGBT couples and provide a process where you are in control of decisions which are made.
Parenting & Custody Mediation
Mediators at Erickson Mediation Institute help parents make important decisions about how to continue raising their children. These decisions make up the Parenting Plan and include decisions about whether both parents should have the right to be consulted, advised and involved in major decisions concerning the child’s health, welfare, religion, and education or whether it should be the responsibility of one parent to make these decisions (Legal Custody). It also includes decisions about who will provide for the day to day care and residence of the child (Physical Custody).
