Mediation is a process where individuals in conflict discuss their issues and make decisions with the assistance of a neutral third party, known as a mediator. The mediator does not determine who is right or wrong but facilitates discussions to help both parties reach mutually agreeable solutions. The aim is to find an outcome that works for everyone involved. If mediation does not lead to an agreement, especially in court-ordered cases, the dispute will return to court for a judge or jury to decide. However, mediation often clarifies the issues and can lead to agreements down the line, even if it doesn’t happen immediately. Holly Mantle, a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Law Mediator, brings extensive family law experience to the table, offering a unique perspective to help you resolve your disputes effectively.


There are several benefits to mediation. It provides an opportunity to communicate with a neutral party who helps keep discussions on track. You maintain control over the decisions, unlike in court where a judge or jury decides the outcome. Mediation sessions are private, in contrast to public court proceedings. Mediation can also be quicker and less costly than going to court. Any agreement reached is documented and becomes a legally binding contract. A family law mediator helps you discuss your dispute without making decisions for you. They remain neutral and impartial, facilitating effective communication and exploration of possible solutions. Mediators come from various professional backgrounds, including law, mental health, and business, and must meet strict certification requirements set by the Florida Supreme Court.
