If parties are coming to mediation, then they/their attorneys have not yet been able to amicably resolve the issues. Simply, the goal of mediation is settle these issues and thus avoid the necessity (and expense) of further litigation. And, mediation usually works . . . approximately 90% of the family law cases Cheryl mediates do settle... Even if the mediation is only scheduled for a few hours, try to make the entire day available. When parties are making progress towards a settlement, it can be difficult to keep that "settlement momentum" going, if someone must leave and the mediation continues to another time. [Cheryl only schedules 1 mediation/day. There is not a charge for any unused time.
