Going through a divorce is extremely difficult, and when the two of you are parents, this makes it even more difficult. Determining who has custody, or working out joint legal custody is often what creates the most tension between divorcing couples.

Going through the court system has gotten more and more difficult over the last several years in the Minnesota area. Budget cuts have led to court cutbacks, meaning there are fewer judges to handle the same number (or more) court cases. This leads to a backlog of cases and lengthy wait times to have your case heard. Divorce mediation is an alternative way to settle your divorce that allows you to control the timing and to a greater extent, the outcome of your divorce settlement. Kallemeyn & Kallemeyn of Coon Rapids, MN specializes in divorce mediation and helping families settle such important issues as child custody, division of property and child/spousal support.
