There is a significant market for this service. Many couples want to avoid the pitfalls of an attorney driven divorce. These couples just want someone to help
them reach an agreement and prepare their paperwork so they can go in front of a judge for an uncontested divorce. Mediators who provide this service have found different ways to operate.

In this session, David and Elinor will discuss some of those guidelines.
