Eidelman & Associates Preparing For The Child Custody Mediation Process | Page 6

Each parent is also encouraged to create a document laying out
the terms for child visitation. Having a document like this helps
each parent determine their desires for the terms of child
custody of the child/children in question. Having those
documents prepared also allows the mediator to work with either
party to come to an agreement regarding those terms. For
example, either parent could establish terms for dropping off the
child/children at the other parents' home, detailing locations and
the type of transportation they plan to use in the document.
Being prepared to work with the other parent is essential to
conclude the child custody mediation process in a relatively civil
way.
