Possible Solutions for Your Virginia Family Law Disputes
When it comes down to it, you can either reach an agreement between your spouse or co-parent, or allow a judge to make decisions for you. The presiding judge only gets a brief snapshot of your issue and cannot possibly know every single detail. On top of that, litigation typically takes much longer and costs more. With court rulings, you give up your control over the outcome and are expected to adhere to the terms, whether you like them or not. At Nicole M. Burns, Attorney at Law, we have a great deal of experience handling disputes through negotiation or mediation, so we can support you no matter which route you decide to take.
If you believe you and the other party can probably come to mutually agreeable terms with some assistance from your lawyers, collaborative law or mediation are possible approaches. Collaborative law is a series of negotiations, typically using your respective attorneys as go-betweens. Mediation inserts a neutral third party between the two sides of the argument to help you focus on moving forward rather than your personal conflicts.
If you have young children, you could consider a low-conflict approach. Less conflict can also enable you to work together more efficiently as co-parents.
