Preparing for child custody mediation
In most cases, both parents should prepare for child custody
mediation by talking to their attorneys before meeting with the
mediator. This helps either party understand their rights to
custody of their child/children and their responsibilities involving
those rights. It is also recommended for both parties to maintain
documentation regarding the childcare of their child/children,
including daily schedules for the child/children, medical records,
and other documents noting special circumstances for child
visitation terms.
