Frequently Asked Questions

At Turek & Associates, we specialize in mediating a wide range of family-related issues, including divorce, child custody and support, property division, and other matters related to family dynamics and relationships.
Is mediation right for me?
Mediation can be a good option for many families, but it may not be suitable for everyone. If you are unsure if mediation is right for your situation, we recommend that you schedule a consultation with one of our experienced mediators to discuss your options.
How long does the mediation process take?
The duration of the mediation process can vary depending on the specific issues and the level of cooperation of the parties involved. Typically, mediation can take several sessions to resolve, but it can also be resolved in a single session.
How much does mediation cost?
At Turek & Associates, we offer competitive rates for our mediation services. The cost of mediation will depend on the specific issues and the length of time required to resolve them. During your consultation, we will provide you with an estimate of the cost of the mediation.
Do I need a lawyer to participate in mediation?
It is not necessary to have a lawyer present during mediation, but some people choose to have legal representation. Mediators at Turek & Associates are trained to provide legal information and help the parties understand the legal process and their rights, but not to act as legal counsel.
