Long Island divorce mediation

Mediation is a process designed to promote cooperation between divorcing partners. This effective alternative dispute resolution method has several essential advantages compared to trial — such as reducing costs, expediting completion of your divorce and decreasing the stress that typically accompanies litigation. Mediation often minimizes the hostility and frustrations of both parents so that you can work together to maintain a stable, positive environment for your children. Elan is a skilled negotiator who can help you find common ground and create successful compromises about issues in which you do not immediately agree.

Divorce litigation

Sometimes a divorce settlement is not possible. If your spouse is abusive or unreasonably obstinate, you may need a trial to preserve your parental and financial rights. Elan is an aggressive advocate who fights for you in court.
