Tampa Pre-Suit Divorce Mediation
Proactive Resolution Of Divorce And Property Disputes Before You File For Divorce
Once divorce papers are filed, amicable intentions may go out the window. Tempers flare and friends, family or attorneys fan the flames. Soon the tentative kitchen table agreement is scrapped and both parties dig in their heels.
It doesn’t have to be this way. Pre-suit mediation is a process for resolving the nuts and bolts of divorce before the divorce action is filed with the court. This heads off the adversarial tactics and inevitable escalation of a contested divorce. It saves time, money and sorrow for everyone involved.
Attorney Mediator Beth Reineke provides pre-suit mediation services to couples in the Tampa Bay Area who are committed to a fair, efficient and amicable divorce. She is Certified by the Florida Supreme Court to mediate divorces and other family law matters.

Attorney Mediator Beth Reineke is skilled at capitalizing on common ground, offering productive suggestions and moving the process toward an amicable resolution.
