Welcome to Maryland Family Mediation LLC

Mediation is a process where a neutral third party, the mediator, helps you figure out the issues in a dispute and find appropriate solutions that serve everyone’s needs. You make the decision, not a judge who doesn't know you or your family. The mediator manages the negotiations between the parties in the dispute. Mediation is private and confidential so problems are solved within the confines of the family.

Our approach to mediation

We believe that most people have the ability to solve their own disputes. We assist you and the other parties in the conflict or lawsuit in having difficult conversations over tough issues, whether it be with your spouse, your partner, your parents or your adult or minor children.   Other users have commented that our "calm approach" enables them to have honest and open dialogues, air their differences and find workable solutions.

We will help you figure out how much it costs to live apart.   We will help you identify and value the marital property and divide it fairly.  If you have children, we will use the state Child Support Guidelines and apply them to your situation.  We will help you negotiatie all aspects of your divorce, including parenting decisions and arrangements.

Mediation looks forward rather than backwards. It does not focus on blame for past wrongs; rather, it looks ahead and helps disputants figure out their options for the future. So if you are a parent in the throes of a divorce, mediation helps you figure out your role as a parent when you're no longer married, i.e. who makes what decisions for your children, who picks them up after sports practice and who takes them to the doctor or dentist.
