Mediation: Mediation is a private, and confidential process that takes place outside of court. The parties are assisted by an impartial mediator to resolve any or all of the issues in their family law matter. When agreement is reached, it can be put in writing by yourselves or with the help of a legal professional. Each party may consult with their own private attorney to advise them on the fairness of the agreement, as well as any legal issues that are present. Barton Pokras uses a variety of mediation techniques to help you resolve the issues upon which you cannot reach agreement. The mediation process is completely voluntary. It is also confidential. Barton Pokras is a divorce lawyer, family law attorney and mediator with offices in Westlake Village and Ventura, serving all Ventura County. With more than 20 years of California family law experience he is able to help you evaluate the matters in controversy, facilitate communications, and help you negotiate a fair agreement with your spouse amicably and with dignity. Once agreement has been reached Barton can prepare a complete and legally enforceable marital settlement agreement that complies with the California family law. He can also prepare whatever legal forms are necessary to obtain your divorce, and arrange for filing and processing by the court. In situations where you need the help of a financial expert to help you analyze and understand financial documents, or where the assistance of a child therapist would help you structure a parenting agreement, Barton Pokras can arrange for obtaining the services of a neutral professional who is familiar with the divorce mediation process. Barton Pokras also serves as a consulting attorney for parties that are having their divorce mediated by another mediator. He can attend the mediation sessions with you and participate in the mediation if so desired.
