What is mediation?
Mediation is a private, informal way to work out your
dispute. It uses a neutral third-party, called a mediator, to help you and the
other parent agree on matters relating to custody and visitation of your child.
A judge may refer you to mediation if s/he thinks it will be helpful, but the
mediator cannot force you to agree to something that you don't want. If you are
the victim of domestic violence, make sure the judge knows this. It may affect
his/her decision on whether to send you to mediation.*
