Virginia Divorce Mediators<\/span><\/h2>\n
When the unexpected happens and a couple realizes they cannot make their marriage work, they begin the process of filing for divorce. One of the most difficult parts of a divorce for most couples is to divide assets and reach a divorce agreement. In divorces where the partners cannot easily agree, coming up with a solution that appeals to both parties can seem almost impossible. Even though divorce is never easy, using a divorce mediator can make the process of reaching a settlement or agreement much simpler.<\/h6>\n
Mediation is especially helpful in particularly emotional divorces and\/or when the issue of child custody must be resolved. A neutral, third-party mediator will make sure that the interests of all involved are protected can help two partners avoid a messy, contested court battle. Dua Law firm\u2019s expert mediators will work with you and your partner to establish an amicable agreement and will strive to reach a win-win outcome.<\/h6>\n

Child Custody and Visitation<\/h3>\n

Divorce is not only tough on the splitting partners, but on their child or children as well. When a marriage ends, the parents must decide with whom their children will live, and discussions on this issue can get heated if the parents are not in agreement. Each parent may try for joint or sole custody in addition to visitation rights if necessary, and making this big decision can be difficult.<\/h6>\n
Although a judge will have the ultimate decision over what type of custody is granted to which parent, a mediator may be able to help both parents reach their own agreement before heading into court for the type of custody they wish to file for. A mediator can help parents determine which type of custody is in the child\u2019s best interests so they can come prepared to court with a plan.<\/h6>\n

Spousal and Child Support<\/h3>\n

Not only must divorcing parents decide child custody, but they must settle how each of them can financially support the child or children. In Virginia, both parents are held responsible for child support, and payments are often based on each parent\u2019s income. Usually, the parent granted the most custody will request child support from their partner who does not live with the child. One partner may also request other payments from their spouse to help them make ends meet. A mediator can help both parents determine what each partner will pay for child support as well as establish a plan for spousal support payments if desired.<\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Marital Property<\/strong><\/h3>
In Virginia, marital property is any joint income earned during the marriage as well as any property purchased with that joint income. This property may include a house, vehicles, furniture, appliances, and more. Virginia is an equitable distribution state, meaning that courts will try to divide marital property as evenly and fairly as possible. This may not be a simple task, depending on the amount of property obtained, the partners\u2019 joint income, and a variety of other factors. A mediator can help you determine you and your spouse\u2019s total marital property and who has a right to which property before the matter can be settled by a judge.<\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
