A Focus on Later-Life Divorce (“Gray Divorce”)

Divorcing after 50 often involves longer marriages, retirement accounts, and more complex property and debt division — and usually less appetite for a drawn-out court fight. Mediation gives long-married couples a private, structured way to work through those decisions at their own pace. This is a particular focus of the practice, and George’s own 44-year marriage informs an appreciation for what is at stake in these conversations.

Other Family Matters

Family mediation may also involve paternity, relocation, and post-judgment disputes. The mediator does not provide legal advice, represent either party, or decide what outcome the parties should accept.

The Mediator's Role

The mediator facilitates communication, helps identify issues, and assists the parties in exploring options. Decisions remain with the parties. If legal advice is needed, each party should consult independent counsel.
