Find a Divorce Lawyer (DivorceLawFirms.com) "Find Divorce lawyers specializing in divorce laws, pre nuptial rights, establishing paternity, mediation, visitation rights, property division, and absolute divorce." "Although divorces may be emotionally contentious, most (probably more than 95 percent) do not end up in a contested trial. Usually the parties negotiate and settle such things as division of property, spousal support, and child custody between themselves, often with a lawyer's help. Divorce Lawyers sometimes work with both parties to reach an agreement by mediation, with a trained mediator who tries to help husband and wife identify and accommodate common interests. The lawyer and the two parties then present their negotiated or mediated agreement to a judge. Approval is virtually automatic if the agreement appears to meet a minimal standard of fairness." 05-07 Mediation Services - Maryland (Mediate-net) Nondivorce (MSN MoneyCentral) "Potentially big legal fees, health-insurance needs and the expense of separate households cause some couples to stay under one roof even when their marriages are all but dead." 01-07
