Many times a couple is not truly done with their divorce agreement, even after they are divorced. When developing a divorce agreement it is important to understand that it is a static document and you are living an ever-changing real life. As professional divorce mediators we do our best to reflect that the arrangements in your divorce agreements may need to change and try to anticipate a method to go about addressing those changes when they inevitably happen over time. The needs of a 5 year old are not the same as the needs of a 15 year old. So, the agreement you developed 10 years ago, may not work very well now.
Sometimes it is necessary to return to mediation at some point in the future, long after you have been granted your divorce and are living out your divorce agreement. There are many reasons people may need to return to tweak either their parenting plan and/or financial arrangements- kids get older, incomes go drastically up or down, people have new relationships, people want to retire, etc.
At Westfield Mediation, we explain that it is okay to make changes down the road to your divorce agreement. It does not mean that you did not have a good divorce agreement at the time that you got divorced. It just means that sometimes a fixed document needs to be adjusted to fit in with your current life circumstances. We can easily see a couple again to help them adjust their alimony terms or run the child support guidelines for them. We can help families make changes to their parenting plan due to schedule changes or living arrangements being re-evaluated. It is cost-effective to see a mediator for one session to discuss your needed changes.
