Long Island Center for Divorce Mediation in Suffolk County – Divorce Mediators are a relatively new profession, about twenty-five years old. Divorce Mediators come from a host of other professions. They can be lawyers, psychologists, social workers or other professionals.Most reputable Divorce Mediators have gone through training at Divorce Mediator training centers. While training is available, there is no license for a Mediator.The Divorce Mediator conducts the divorce mediation sessions. Once completed, a lawyer usually turns the agreements into the Stipulation of Settlement and Divorce Papers. Obviously, those Divorce Mediators who are also lawyers can do the required paperwork for you. Those mediators who are not lawyers will provide you with a memorandum of agreement. You can bring that memorandum to a lawyer to complete the paperwork that needs to go to the Judge. Only then will a legal divorce ensue.It is possble to take the memorandum to a paralegal for completion of paperwork or to even try to do it yourself. We do not recommend this method as often the paperwork is overturned and has to be redone.
