When it comes to choosing a divorce mediator, Experience Matters!

Divorce-Mediator-Joe-Dillon-Divorce-Coach-Cheryl-Dillon-400 Other than the decision to divorce itself, there is no single more important decision than hiring a divorce mediator who has the skills and expertise to successfully guide you through your divorce negotiations.

And the best divorce mediator isn't necessarily the one who has an office closest to your home.

The mediator you choose will play a critical role in:

- How well your divorce will go - financially and emotionally;

- How thorough your agreement will be;

- How fair and equitable your agreement will be;

- How long your divorce will take to complete;

- How likely you'll need to return to court in the future to try to resolve an issue that wasn't addressed properly (or at all) during the time of your divorce.

So if you want to learn what we do to help make your divorce less expensive, less time-consuming and less stressful and get you a thorough agreement that's fair to both of you and puts your children first, book this online meeting!

Thank you to you both (Joe and Cheryl) for a smooth and hassle-free mediation.

We really appreciate how organized your business runs, it really helped to relieve any additional emotional stress.

Thank you for helping us reach a fair and balanced agreement.

I guess that's why you're called Equitable Mediation Services!

Equitable Mediation’s process was very easy and I would go the mediation route again.

It was good working with Cheryl and Joe and we saved a lot of money and conflict by not involving lawyers.

I'm glad we chose to work with Joe and Cheryl instead of lawyers.

Equitable Mediation Services was definitely a more civilized way to go.

This initial meeting is right for you and your spouse if:

who-can-mediate- 1. You both want to get a divorce or separation.

We suggest you book an initial meeting once you and your spouse have both made peace with the decision to divorce or separate.

2. You are both willing to consider mediation as a viable option for your divorce.

If you and your spouse are both willing to put aside your differences for the sake of your kids and truly commit to working through the terms of your divorce, book an initial meeting.

But if your spouse doesn't want to divorce, is still resentful or blaming you and only agreed to attend the meeting because you pressured them into it, this meeting is not appropriate.

3. You already learned about divorce mediation basics, our company, and our mediation services.

We suggest you review the following pages on our website before booking an initial meeting:

Learn About Divorce Mediation
Why Mediate With Us
Online Mediation

This will help ensure our time together will be as informative for you as possible.

4. You are both ready to start the divorce mediation process.

We suggest you book an initial meeting once you and your spouse are both ready to actually begin the divorce mediation process.

5. You and/or your spouse live in a state where we practice.

We practice in California, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Washington State and Michigan.

If you and your spouse are on the same page about divorce and are both ready to start the process, our online initial meeting is right for you!

Book the Meeting Now

In this 1 hour online initial meeting, we'll cover:

A high level overview of the issues that will need to be resolved in your divorce.
How our mediation process works, how long it will take to complete and choices you'll have along the way. Enabling you to make informed decisions that are right for you.
What your mediation will cost and what's included in our services. General cost ranges are shared on our "Why Work With Us" page.
During this meeting, the three of us will also determine if mediation (and working with us) is the right solution for you.

Note: If you are looking for legal advice, DO NOT book this meeting. We are not lawyers and we cannot and will not provide legal advice.

And if you're only looking for someone to file your divorce and nothing else, don't book this meeting - that isn't what mediation is for.

For your convenience, the meeting takes place online - via Zoom.

You and your spouse don't have to be in the same location together unless you choose to be. You just need to be someplace quiet and private where you have access to a computer or tablet with an internet connection.

We'll provide a link to a specific website and you'll enter the password we give you. This way, you'll be able to see visuals to illustrate the information we're sharing with you.

And since we know this is an emotional time, the choice to also use video is entirely up to you.

Take the next step to a peaceful, fair, child-focused and cost-effective divorce!
