Iowa is a no-fault divorce state. This means that the parties may be granted a divorce without a focus on blaming either party for the dissolution of the marriage. The consequence of no-fault is that the requirements to file for divorce are relatively straightforward. Either spouse may file for divorce in Iowa.
Mediation is a method of helping folks resolve their disputes. It involves the participation of the parties in a process that typically leads to the parties resolving their disagreements with the help of a mediator. The process is a non-adversarial environment. It is a time where the parties should "roll up their sleeves" and "sharpen their pencils" to work with the mediator in finding solutions.
Simply put, Teach a Man to Fish. Fighting out a divorce concerning the custody of children between parents can become adversarial, antagonistic and hostile.

Under Iowa law, judges decide the amount of child support a parent must pay to the non-custodial parent. Judges must utilize the Iowa Child Support Guidelines when calculating support.
