Mediation is a voluntary process that is driven by the cooperation of parties who share a common goal to reach a mutually-beneficial settlement.

Mediation is less expensive, leaving more assets for you and your family.

Instead of having a judge who does not know the parties determine the outcome, couples make their own decisions regarding parenting plans, division of property and division of assets.

A successful mediation can be accomplished sooner than a litigated divorce — often within the 6 month, one day waiting period.

Mediation is often significantly less expensive than litigation.

Records are not public, so your privacy is fully protected.

Mediation is an out-of-court process protecting all members from the war-zone of court battles.

My name is Lani Baron and I am a family law attorney and mediator. I created Alternative Divorce Solutions after having witnessed the pain and devastation that can occur from lengthy and high conflict divorces. I make it my personal duty to show couples that there is a better way. Through my extensive work with my clients, I have made a positive impact on the lives of many couples and their children. I personally guide couples from the beginning to the end of the divorce process.

In mediation, you as a couple will meet with Lani Baron, a highly-trained mediation attorney to dissolve your marriage without going to court. You can resolve all issues of your marriage, such as asset and debt division, property division, child custody, and support.

This is a voluntary process that allows both parties to actively negotiate with the guidance of a mediation attorney who provides objective legal information and facilitates open and honest communication. As a result, mediation establishes a foundation for continued cooperation, and allows couples to craft their own post-divorce arrangements by fostering practical, individualized problem solving.
