Mediation

Jim and Judy have been early pioneers and leaders in mediation with hundreds of hours of training. Judy has taught and lectured about mediation to numerous lawyers, law students, and mental health professionals.

Mediation empowers the parties usually with or sometimes without attorneys to negotiate their divorce settlement in a cooperative environment with a neutral third party.

With the Dougherty's experience, they can determine the right mediation style and process for your case: whether you can benefit from negotiating in the same room with the benefits of direct feedback and developing negotiating skills for the future, or whether your case needs more indirect negotiations with the mediator shuttling between the parties and attorneys, there is a focus on client-centered resolutions.

Their will be a written settlement agreement that will be reviewed by or with your attorney that reflects the issues you have resolved that are needed to finalize the divorce.

The crisis of the divorce creates an opportunity for change. Because of the divorce there will be always dramatic changes. The Dougherty firm is committed to help their clients seize this opportunity for positive healing and growth.
