Mediation provides couples a safe confidential place to discuss and resolve conflict leading to an equitable settlement. The mediator is an impartial neutral encouraging parties to use open and honest communication to resolve conflict. A Prenuptial Agreement, also known as premarital or ante-nuptial agreement, is a contract between two parties prior to marriage that specifies how property, debt, and assets are to be divided in the event of divorce, death, or separation.

If you and your spouse can negotiate either together, or through your respective attorneys, to resolve all the issues and come to an agreement on all the terms, then you have an uncontested divorce and you can file a Joint Petition for Divorce.If you have minor children, you will need to decide how to co-parent during your separation and following your divorce.
Services
If you and your spouse can negotiate either together, or through your respective attorneys, to resolve all the issues and come to an agreement on all the terms, then you have an uncontested divorce and you can file a Joint Petition for Divorce. You would still have a hearing in front of a Probate and Family Court Judge to have the Agreement approved and incorporated into the Divorce Judgment.
Mediation provides couples a safe confidential place to discuss and resolve conflict leading to an equitable settlement. The mediator is an impartial neutral encouraging parties to use open and honest communication to resolve conflict. Mediation can be used for divorce, custody and support, alimony, paternity actions, and modifications.
Mediation is an efficient and inexpensive process for settling disputes between separating or divorcing couples. The mediator remains impartial and assists the parties to develop their own resolutions. You and your partner control the decisions affecting your family, finances, business, and life.

Each person receives the legal and financial information and if relevant, child support guidelines, which are necessary to create an agreement best suited to your individual needs.At the close of the mediation, you will each receive a written document called the Separation Agreement and an Affidavit of Irretrievable Breakdown which you will file directly with the Court.
Limited Assistance Representation is when an attorney represents or assists a litigant with part, but not all, of his or her legal matter. As with all legal services, you and your attorney will negotiate whether and how much you will pay him or her. There are instances where an attorney may be willing to provide services without fee, i.e. pro bono.

Attorney Mitchell was a great advocate for me during a difficult divorce. She was patient, understanding, thorough and professional. I absolutely could not have gone though the process without her.

I needed some legal work done in order to retire from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and Carolyn was referred to me by another attorney.
She was very efficient, knew exactly what was required, and was very responsive to any questions or concerns that I had.
Despite the fact that we were involved in a worldwide pandemic, Attorney Mitchell quickly, and professionally completed the necessary work to allow me to proceed with my retirement.

Carolyn was tremendously helpful as my LAR. While my ex and I agreed on all the particulars, we had no idea how to actually "get on with" the divorce, particularly during Covid times and after both moving. Carolyn was great about 1. listening to what we actually needed, 2. being clear about expectations and costs, and 3. consistent timely and thorough delivery of documents. She was also extremely helpful in navigating questions we had about jurisdiction. While divorces can be very tough, having a calm and knowledgeable professional can make it a bit more tolerable! Thank you Carolyn!!

Carolyn was recommended to me by another attorney I know well who practices in a different area of law. Like many people I couldn't believe I was in need of counsel from a family attorney in a divorce proceeding. Carolyn is a deeply kind, compassionate and wonderful person; and highly knowledgeable in mediation and family law. If you find yourself in similar situation, I highly recommend you give her a call. You'll be well served in so doing.

Carolyn is the absolute best across the board! She assisted with my divorce and was always prompt in returning my calls and emails. Her personal attention during this difficult time made me feel very at ease with her and confident with the divorce being completed asap. I will always remember her attentiveness, kindness, and professionalism with myself and my particular circumstances. I recommend her to anybody and everybody without any hesitation.
Carolyn, you are the BEST!!! THANK YOU!!!

I seldom write reviews but I really feel compelled to write one about my experience I just had. I reached out to Attorney Mitchell years later on a case she mediated for me. She responded almost immediately and answered my question. I wish there were more attorney's out there that were as responsive and professional as her.
