Since Unmani only takes non-adversarial cases, and does not litigate, she is able to give all her clients timely attention. Unmani's practice is that of a transactional attorney, which means she can anticipate the majority of her work and serve all of her clients equally. For a mediation consultation, both individuals attend the initial consultation.
Mediation is defined in the American Heritage Dictionary as "an attempt to bring about a peaceful settlement or compromise between disputants through the objective intervention of a neutral party." Mediation is a good option for people who do not want to spend a lot of money on legal fees, because client have control over how much money they spend on their professional guidance.
The benefits of working with an attorney-mediator is that clients can have their legal questions answered in a neutral manner, and also have the same person who has been working with them on the content of the agreement draft their legal documents and forms. If clients have already come to agreements on most of the issues, she can do most of the drafting and interacting with clients by phone and email.
The true story: the law must be followed in only rare circumstances, meaning that if people choose, they can agree to an outcome that does not follow the law. It's possible to use the law as more of a one option out of many options for resolving issues, rather than as a concrete way to consider an issue.
Unmani encourages her clients to get the most accurate information available to make the challenging decisions divorce demands. The most accurate information is sometimes beyond the scope of family law or tax training, and instead lies with other professionals-such as family relations specialists, clinical psychologists, financial planners, specialized tax attorneys, estate/trust attorneys, CPAs, and business valuators.
