Law Offices of Scott C. Marks

I have been practicing family law on the North Shore for over 30 years. Throughout my career, I realized that most of my clients were better served if they resolved their differences instead of litigating their issues in Court. By agreeing they might reduce the emotional and financial costs to the entire family of divorce. So, I trained in mediation and collaborative practice and for the past 15 years or so have been offering these alternatives to litigation. As a mediator and collaborative practitioner, I help people to discuss and resolve issues such as: divorce, alimony, child custody and support, college expenses, parenting, property division, grandparent’s rights, prenuptial agreements, and modification and enforcement of existing orders. I would be happy to describe mediation and collaborative divorce with you in more detail and to see if your case may be appropriate for these options to litigation. Please feel free to call or write.

Divorce mediation is a negotiation between spouses who have decided to end their marriage without litigation. It is voluntary and confidential. A divorce mediator is a neutral party trained to help couples resolve the inevitable disputes that arise during divorce.

Solutions Through Mediation: Marcia E. Tannenbaum, Esq.

A family law attorney and divorce lawyer for more than two decades, Attorney Tannenbaum offers expert guidance in both divorce mediation and collaborative practice—two non-adversarial approaches that enable you to resolve legal conflicts through negotiation, without litigating. In mediation, the parties work with one professional mediator; in collaborative practice, each party has separate legal representation. With either approach, you all come together at the same table, in a safe space, where you are able to hear each other and to work out a mutually acceptable solution. The process is driven by you, the client, rather than a pushy divorce lawyer and the court system. Mediation and collaborative practice should take less time than drawn-out legal battles and are typically less costly, both emotionally and financially. You resolve issues with your dignity in tact.

Susan Sloane

Are you looking for a calmer, less expensive way to resolve a dispute? Does the thought of spending thousands of dollars on legal fees and months waiting for a court hearing fill you with despair? Then consider mediation.
