Child Support Mediation
In child support mediation, separated or divorced parents work together—often with a trained family mediator—to determine a fair financial arrangement for their child’s upbringing. The focus is not on punishment but on cooperation, ensuring the child’s needs are met. This process encourages dialogue around income, living expenses, education, and healthcare costs. Unlike court rulings, mediation allows parents to customize the agreement and maintain control over decisions. It often results in better long-term co-parenting relationships and higher compliance with support terms. Importantly, mediation empowers parents to prioritize their child’s well-being rather than become adversaries in court.
