The groundbreaking video that helps couples mediate their own divorce - without lawyers.
Divorce without lawyers. Divorce through cooperation. It's a growing trend , as a new breed of mediators empower separating couples to mediate their own divorce, without lawyers.
But how does a person or couple learn to mediate? Family Mediation assists divorcing couples in working out an equitable dissolution agreement that meets the needs of their post-divorce family. Family Mediation shows a realistic simulation of a complete and successful divorce mediation, answers common questions, and prepares the viewer for his or her role in mediation.
This unique video series begins with the elementary decision to divorce, fully explores custody decisions and concludes with a full financial settlement of the dissolution. The whole mediation process - culled from weeks of videotaping - fills five one-hour videotapes: The Decision to Divorce, Telling the Children, The Custody Decision, Dividing Limited Resources, and Family Mediation: Conflict and Resolution in Divorce.
Created by two pioneering experts on the subject of divorce mediation, Serena Stier, professor of law at Albany Law School in Albany, NY, and family therapist Nina Hamilton, currently at the University of Illinois in Champaign, IL.
