Family Mediation Services in Tampa

In addition to our divorce services, Sessums Law Group, P.A. offers confidential family mediation as an alternative process to resolve disputes. Our highly qualified mediators guide parties through the issues that will be included in a Mediated Settlement Agreement. When the mediation is complete, parties will have everything they need to finalize their dispute without the necessity of extensive litigation.

As a way to educate the public and help anyone navigating their options find clear answers in a trying time, we’ve conducted a thorough question and answer session with both of our mediators, Ms. Jensen, and Ms. Boulos. We asked them the following questions to get their answers out to you.

Our scheduling process is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week through our online calendar making scheduling a mediation as convenient as possible. Simply select the Scheduling tab today to schedule your mediation.

1 – Who could benefit from mediation?

Anyone can benefit from mediation. It allows the parties to decide the outcome of their case, since they are decision makers in mediation. It also allows the parties to stay in control of their lives, rather than having someone else make decisions for them (such as a judge).

2 – Is mediation mandatory?

The mediation process is a voluntary process.

3 – What can I expect at a mediation with you?

You can expect to be in private, separate conference rooms or offices that incorporate calming elements to help create a collaborative environment utilizing technology when appropriate. Mediation sessions are a minimum of 2 hours long but can be scheduled in advance for as long as the parties’ expect they will need to come a resolution.

4 – Does the mediator represent me?

A mediator is a neutral party and does not represent either you or the other party in your case. The mediator cannot give either party legal advise.

5 – What is your role as a mediator?

The role of a mediator is to be neutral, help identify issues to be resolved, explore options for resolving those issues, reduce obstacles of communication between the parties and assist them in reaching a mutual agreement.

6 – Do I need an attorney to attend mediation?
