Westlake Village Mediation Attorney

What Are the Benefits of Mediation for Divorce & Family Cases?

Reaching a Fair and Agreed Upon SolutionMediation can help resolve many of divorce issues and settle the terms without having to go to court. The costs of divorce can be tremendous, and taking the matter to trial might only drive up this cost even more. By settling your divorce matters out of court with the help of a Westlake Village mediation attorney, not only can you avoid the added time and expense, but you may find that communicating and compromising with your spouse has fostered a vastly improved relationship.

What Are the Benefits of Mediation?

Mediation is an alternative to divorce—a route you can take to avoid messy or chaotic court procedures. Some of us do not choose to be divorced, but it often comes as a result of forces well beyond our control. With mediation, however, you have the chance to take the reins and manage the situation better suited to your needs.

These are several benefits to resolving matters during mediation, including:

  • Most of the matters are settled at the end of mediation
  • You have control over what you believe is fair and rightful in your situation
  • All interactions are confidential, and will not be kept as public record
  • You and your spouse can benefit from an improved relationship
  • You can still benefit from having a legal counselor to guide you

The overarching goal of a Westlake Village mediation lawyer is to give power to clients, and help them realize that they have the power to control the situation. With over 35 years of experience under my belt, I, Attorney Jeffrey S. Graff, have achieved many successes for my clients. I am dedicated to your success, and always put your wishes at the forefront.

Thousands of Cases Successfully Handled

Since 1981, I have been garnering an extensive track record of success in the thousands of cases I have handled. One of my most prominent achievements is winning a case in Ventura County’s Appellate Court, which eventually led to a reform in California’s family law. I know that spouses spend a great deal of their efforts working through their divorce case, but I am ready to take some of the burden off of your shoulders through mediation.

    “Mr. Graff was FANTASTIC!!! At the first meeting he was very knowledgeable as to my case details and clearly described the necessary procedures that I should expect. He was available anytime I had a question and always responded right away. When the court date arrived, he was absolutely the most professional in his presentation to the judge (compared to the other attorney who mumbled her way through) and I won my case. You can not go wrong with Jeffrey!!”
