Mediation Prior to Temporary Orders

Smith & Garg - North Houston Attorneys

Many courts, to ease the crowded dockets, require mediation prior to the entry of Temporary Orders. Mediation is when two parties sit down in an informal setting outside the presence of the Court to try and resolve their differences. In most mediations, the couples are separated.

Each respective side of the dispute is in a separate room with their attorney. A neutral mediation will generally shuffle back and forth between each room in an effort to resolve the conflicts at hand. Regarding mediation prior to the entry of temporary orders, the primary purpose of this mediation is to resolve temporary issues such as: who will remain in the family home, with who will the children reside, will alimony be paid, how much child support will be paid – anyway, you get the idea. These are issues which must be resolved, either in mediation or by a hearing, prior to the resumption of the divorce process.

If you are in the process of getting a divorce or have already been served with divorce papers, you need the help of a competent and aggressive Conroe Divorce Attorney or a Spring Divorce Attorney.  Contact the Montgomery County, Texas Divorce attorneys at Smith & Garg today to schedule a consultation.
