Pasadena - Los Angeles Area Lawyer Helping Couples Resolve Their Differences

Couples that aggressively litigate their divorce case generally suffer severe emotional wounds which remain with them for a significant amount of time and which often prevent them from allowing closure and moving forward with their lives. They sometimes feel as though they had little involvement in the process and that the court made a decision with which they have to live.

Mediation is an alternative that is becoming increasingly popular. It allows the divorcing couple to sit down with an objective third party and work through all of the issues that need to be resolved in the divorce. Mediation can still be contentious at times, but at its core, it is a collaborative effort in dispute resolution that involves each party in the decision-making process.

Mediation also helps to accelerate the healing process. Couples who have gone through mediation often tend to be more satisfied than those who have gone through a litigated divorce.

Mark B. Baer has been practicing family law in Pasadena and the greater Los Angeles area since 1991. He is a trained mediator and has worked with clients in all types of family law matters including divorce, child custody, child and spousal support, and property division.

As a mediator, Mr. Baer cannot represent either the husband or the wife. He would be able to inform both parties of their legal rights but would not offer legal advice to either one.
