In Riverside and San Bernardino family law courts, all child custody cases must go through a mediation process where a court appointed, neutral third party will sit down with the parents and listen to the parents' concerns and parenting plan proposals, and thereafter, will prepare a recommendation that the mediator thinks is in the best interest of the child and submit that to the judge as well as the parents for their review before their child custody hearing. Our https://www.child-custody-lawyer-riverside.com/child-custody-and-visitation" target="_blank">Riverside and San Bernardino Child Custody Lawyers can help you prepare for mediation, so that you do not have to attend unprepared.

During mediation, you should NOT:

1) Discuss child support;

2) Use your child as a bargaining tool to get something else;

3) Get angry or interrupt the other parent;

4) Go unprepared without a child custody and visitation plan or proposal;

5) Go without consulting an attorney and get at least some coaching about how to present your case to the mediator effectively and properly.
