The cost of litigation extends far beyond the financial cost. This is especially true when the participants have a personal relationship with each other, such as family members, neighbors and business partners. Mediation offers an alternative way to resolve your differences while keeping control over the process and the outcome. A mediator is a trained, neutral third party who assists the parties to a dispute in crafting a resolution that is acceptable to both sides. Not only is it quicker and less expensive than litigation, but mediated agreements are more likely to be adhered to by the parties than ones imposed on them by the courts.

Durr Mediation Services offers mediation in the area of family law, including custody/visitation issues, child and spousal support, and division of assets. We work with families divided over the care of a loved one or with disputes after a parent dies. We also works with business partners who have disputes, as well as neighbors with disagreements.
