Whether you come to us for a divorce, a prenup, or a "Marriage-or-Divorce Agreement", you receive information about your legal rights in a neutral setting during your mediation sessions.

You get legal advice from an outside "reviewing attorney" of your choice. This is someone you choose to review your settlement agreement before you sign it. This safeguard takes about an hour of your time, and insures that you are thoroughly informed about all of the ramifications of your proposed agreement, before you sign a binding agreement.

None of our divorcing clients have had to go to court, since we opened our practice in 1982. All of our Marital Settlement Agreements have been signed by the judge without a court hearing, so our clients have been spared the cost and inconvenience of making a court appearance.

We assist each of you in negotiating a fair and balanced agreement, one that each of you believes will work for you in the long run.

Your agreement is tailored to meet the unique needs of your family. No two couples are the same. We believe that your agreement should reflect your own beliefs and circumstances and not necessarily match what any other couple would choose to do.

You gather reliable information about all of the issues that will affect your agreement. We make certain that you have all of the information you need to make fully informed decisions about each issue.

We are experienced with the issues that face high net worth couples, including division of real estate holdings, businesses, pensions, and stock options.

If you are getting a divorce, and have minor children, we help you develop a parenting plan and teach you how to use a "periodic planning meeting" to modify your schedule in the future. This is in stark contrast to the court system, which makes no provision for the changes that occur over time. When you complete your mediation with Coast To Coast, you should have the tools necessary to adjust your parenting plan without help from us or the court.

If you both want to discuss continuing your marriage, we will help you develop a "marriage-or-divorce" agreement, really two agreements, with one about how to get your marriage back on track and the other about the terms of your divorce, should you eventually decide to end your marriage.

Whether your agreement is a prenup, or a divorce agreement, when the mediation is over, you will have a clear, detailed, and binding agreement which you can refer to in the future, one which addresses all of the issues that affect you and your family.
