Financial support is often the most stressful aspect of a separation. Our goal is to remove conflict and guesswork by using the Federal Child Support Guidelines and Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines as a foundation for fair, data-driven, and equitable agreements.
Structuring Sustainable Support
Our process focuses on creating a clear financial roadmap for the road ahead:
- Child Support (Section 3 & 7): We ensure basic monthly amounts are set correctly while clearly defining “extraordinary expenses”—such as sports, medical costs, and daycare—to prevent future arguments.
- Spousal Support: we determine fair amounts and durations based on your unique circumstances, ensuring the transition to two households is manageable for both parties.
- Future Flexibility: Life changes. We build in scheduled review dates to adjust support as incomes or children’s needs evolve, saving you from future legal costs.
- Budgeting & Cash Flow: We help you understand how support affects your taxes and monthly budget, ensuring your final agreement is realistic and sustainable.
The Mediation Advantage
Unlike a court order, which can leave parties feeling financially strapped, mediation focuses on transparency. We help you reach an agreement that minimizes conflict and provides the financial security necessary for both parents to thrive.
