“By the time we see [divorce] cases in court, most people have spent all of their community assets on the divorce itself. By that time, we're just dividing debts and allocating attorney's fees”, A Superior Court Family Law Judge, speaking to the Beverly Hills Bar Association, 2002.

to complete your divorce and get on with your life.
It wasn’t a war when you got married. It shouldn’t be a war (staged at great expense in a public courtroom) when you get divorced, but it is often treated as such, and the financial and emotional cost can be devastating.
At CEDRS, we are skilled mediators and professional attorneys. We help you through this difficult process in several stages:
- We work with you to reach the best possible agreement for the custody and care of the children.
- We work with you to reach a fair property settlement agreement
- We assist in the creation and filing of all required court documents.
- As needed, we will refer each spouse to an attorney to review any settlement agreement before you sign it, to safeguard your rights with independent advice. If needed, we can also provide referrals to therapists, accountants, annuity experts, and other professionals as needed to streamline the process.
- The law requires a 6-month wait between filing for divorce and a final Decree. A contested divorce in court can take a lot longer than six months. But with a mediated approach, the process should generally be over within the six month time period.
- Using CEDRS’ MEDIATED DIVORCE SOLUTIONS, maximum energy is spent creatively working out any problems, with a specialized mediator-attorney to assist you.
CEDRS’ MEDIATED DIVORCE SOLUTIONS is not for everyone. In the past, mostly celebrities used mediation to get divorced, mainly to avoid publicity. But times have changed. If you want to dissolve your marriage, hold on to your assets, take care of your children, and save yourselves the stress of lengthy court proceedings and high legal bills, then contact us today, or take our quick survey to see if we can help you.
