You are not required to have an attorney if you are using mediation. However, we strongly encourage you to consider using an attorney for three main purposes: 1. To consult with regarding any legal questions you may have; 2. To review any agreements that result from the mediation; and 3. To help you with any legal processes you have to complete once your mediation is finished (e.g. final divorce order, custody order, child support order, or any other family dispute that has a case pending in the courts).
