The mediation process itself is conducted by the independent lawyer - mediator who contracts privately with the couple. The process used is meetings - together and separately with the mediator.
Resolution means the ultimate signing of a written agreement.
Issues means those matters that separating couples face at the end of the marital relationship. Mediation is not marriage counselling.
