Family Mediation

Massachusetts Family Mediation Lawyer

Handle Family Matters with Dignity

When unmarried partners realize that their relationship is no longer working and decide to split, there are may be issues to resolve, particularly if the partners have been together for a number of years. Because the relationship is not a legal marriage these issues must be handled differently than in divorce proceedings. Settling matters amicably through family mediation may be the best course of action.

Since 1997, mediation and family law attorney Polly Tatum has assisted clients in Worcester County and the surrounding area, helping both same sex and opposite sex partners through the process of relationship dissolution through family law mediation. This process is both confidential and cost-effective. For information on our meditation services to unmarried couples, contact the Law Office of Polly A. Tatum.

Family Mediation – A Compelling Alternative

Unmarried partners do not have the same legal protection as married couples. This sometimes makes it difficult to make determinations over property division, support and custody. In such cases, mediation is a strong alternative to consider. After all, wouldn’t you rather handle matters with the help of a single attorney trained as a professional mediator rather than each person hiring their own attorney and paying exorbitant fees just to have a judge make the final decision?
