SUMMARY:Divorcing with Dignity
DESCRIPTION:THIS SESSION HAS BEEN CANCELLED. PLEASE JOIN US FOR THE NEXT ONE ON JUNE 10.\nAre you or someone you care about facing the difficult decision of divorce? This informative and compassionate workshop is designed to help individuals and couples better understand their options and find a peaceful\, cost-effective way to move forward. Divorce is never easy\, but with the right tools and guidance\, it doesn’t have to be destructive. \nThis session focuses on divorce mediation—a respectful\, cooperative process that empowers couples to make all of their own decisions regarding parenting plans\, division of property and finances\, child support\, and alimony. Mediation offers a collaborative alternative to the traditional adversarial legal process\, allowing couples to prioritize the well-being of their family\, especially their children\, during an emotionally challenging time. \nIf both individuals can communicate respectfully and act with fairness and reason\, mediation can significantly reduce the emotional and financial toll of divorce. Unlike litigation\, which can be lengthy\, expensive\, and combative\, mediation is private\, quicker\, less costly\, and far less stressful. \nIn this workshop\, you will: \n\n\nLearn what divorce mediation is and how it works \n\n\nUnderstand the qualifications for pursuing mediation \n\n\nDiscover the benefits of mediation versus traditional divorce litigation \n\n\nHear real-world examples of successful mediated divorces \n\n\nReceive resources to help you begin the process\, if and when you’re ready \n\n\nWhether you’re in the early stages of considering divorce or already in the process\, this workshop will provide clarity\, support\, and practical information to help you make the best decisions for yourself and your family. \nTake the first step toward a more peaceful resolution—join us to explore if mediation is right for you. \nIf you cannot attend in-person\, you can contact Michael Cohen through his website at michaelsmediation.com to meet 1:1 to review this same information in a confidential manner. \nMichael Cohen is a divorce mediator in Lake Forest who is dedicated to helping families get through the stressful process of a divorce in the healthiest way for the couple and for their children.  During a successful career leading diverse teams for a large local company\, Michael trained at Northwestern University to gain his divorce mediation certification and has built a practice whose purpose is to help others.  Michael is a caring\, empathetic leader who will take the time to understand your passions and priorities\, and will guide you to help you create the best solutions for you and your families.
