Maximize Your Mediation Success with Strategic Preparation
Hi, I’m Aaron Grubb, the Tahlequah family law attorney at Wirth Law Office. In this video, I want to walk you through how to prepare for mediation.
Mediation is a process where both parties come together with a neutral third party, not a judge, to work toward resolving disputes through compromise. The mediator doesn’t make binding decisions, but they do help guide the conversation and suggest possible solutions.
Understanding Your Priorities
To get the most out of mediation, it’s essential to arrive prepared. Begin by creating a clear list of your priorities—what you want most from the process. If you’re in a custody dispute, for example, that might be primary custody or a specific visitation schedule.
It’s also important to recognize that mediation is about compromise. You likely won’t get everything you’re asking for, so identify which issues are most important to you and where you’re willing to be flexible. Having a “must-have” list and a “willing-to-negotiate” list can go a long way in helping the process succeed.
