I always advise my clients to have separate, independent counsel review any agreement before they sign it. About half my clients choose to do so; about half do not. In this article, Susan Ingram explains that, as divorce mediators, we must, and will, give a couple information about the law. This includes equitable distribution of property, parenting plans, and child support. Susan also explains that mediators work in a neutral capacity with both parties, and do not offer separate legal advice to either one of them.
