Most parents have no structured college savings plans set up for their children. Sadly, the numbers are even higher after a divorce. When people divorce, there are so many complex issues to discuss and agree to, college planning for the children typically takes a back seat to everything else. Things such as, “We’ll work it out when the time comes” or “We’ll set something up after the divorce, when things calm down” are common in my client meetings. As a divorce mediator, I cringe when I hear my clients utter these phrases. Even the most well intended parents don’t follow through with these statements. Chances are, if something isn’t structured and worked out in the divorce agreement, there’s a good chance nothing will get done. This in turn will lead to heated post-divorce college planning arguments, court dates and legal fees when it comes time to pay for college.

The Advantages Of Co-Mediation
Co-mediation is a form of mediation where more than one mediator is present during a meeting. It is thought to be more beneficial to clients as the mediators complement each other in terms of personality, culture, gender, professional background to improve the quality of the mediation process and its outcome. A co-mediation can be used to settle divorce and post-decree cases (i.e., situations that occur after divorce). The purpose of this form of cooperation is to facilitate agreements on all issues regarding children and finances, with as little conflict as possible.

Post-Decree Mediation And Why It Is Beneficial
Post-decree mediation is a form of mediation that takes place between ex-spouses/parents when they are having trouble parenting their children after divorce/splitting up. This may be because the communication between the parents has broken down, one person wants the parenting schedule to be changed, their children are having issues in school, etc. . Post-decree mediation may also be necessary when one ex-spouse is not running decisions by the other or is not seeking an agreement for decisions they need to make as a team.
