Experience
Our firm’s founder Attorney Charles Montgomery has over 40 years of proven, award-winning legal experience.
Divorce mediation is when the divorcing parties and a third party mediator trained in dispute resolution meet to resolve issues in a divorce.
The goal is to reach an acceptable agreement and produce a written memorandum on many of the major issues discussed. Divorce mediation is consensual -- you are not told by the mediator what the decision should be.
Divorce mediation is advantageous in many cases because:
For divorce mediation to be fully successful the parties must be open to settlement. They need to try to find middle ground and compromise between both parties. To prepare for mediation, you and your attorney should consider issues most important to you and your goals.

We have an attorney trained as a Certified Superior Court Mediator. An attorney cannot be both an impartial North Carolina divorce mediator and your personal attorney. If you want us to serve as a NC divorce mediator, you must advise our office before any consultation to discuss your case.
Otherwise, we would have a conflict of interest and could not mediate between you and your spouse. As divorce attorneys, we can go to a mediation conference with you to advise you of the legal consequences of different issues discussed before you commit to a binding settlement agreement.
This is possible in all cases except court ordered custody and visitation mediation in certain counties of the state. In these counties the parties meet together alone with a court appointed mediator paid by the state.
Divorce mediation is increasingly popular in family law matters. It is successful if both parties will seriously try to reach an agreement.
However, one non-cooperative party can make mediation impossible. We encourage you to explore this alternative method of dispute resolution with us if you believe it can work in your case.
One of our Cary divorce mediation lawyers at Montgomery Family Law can help decide whether mediation is right for you.
