Mediation is all about coming to terms with the other parent without going through court. Mediation is just as effective as court order as long as you both can come to an agreement. It will be cheaper as well. You need to hire a lawyer to go with you on Mediation so that you can get the best deal possible. Call my office to go over few things as part of a free consultation.
