Divorce and family law matters don’t always have to end in a courtroom showdown. In fact, many couples and co-parents achieve faster, more peaceful, and more cost-effective outcomes through dispute resolution methods such as mediation, negotiation, or private judging.
At Garelick Family Law, we understand the emotional and financial toll that prolonged litigation can have on families—especially when significant assets or children are involved. That’s why we offer dispute resolution services tailored to your needs, goals, and circumstances.
Why Choose Dispute Resolution?
When it comes to family law, the best solutions often come from cooperation—not conflict. Dispute resolution empowers you to maintain control over your own case while protecting your privacy and minimizing emotional harm.
Here’s why so many of our clients prefer this approach:
Maintain Control & Confidentiality
Unlike courtroom battles, dispute resolution allows you to keep sensitive matters private and retain decision-making power. You and your attorney play an active role in crafting solutions that work for your family.
Reduce Conflict, Preserve Peace</>p
Litigation can intensify emotional tension. Our approach encourages constructive communication and emotional balance, helping you reach resolution without destroying relationships—especially when children are involved.

Whether it’s your children, your home, or your business, we use dispute resolution to minimize risk while maximizing results. Our strategies focus on safeguarding both your immediate needs and long-term interests.

Mediation, Settlement Conferences & Private Resolution
Every case is unique. That’s why we tailor our dispute resolution strategies to fit your circumstances:
● Mediation
A neutral third party helps both sides reach agreement. We represent and advise you throughout the process to ensure your rights are protected.
● Collaborative Divorce
A respectful, team-based method where both parties agree to resolve disputes outside of court. It’s a smart, family-focused option for those who want to avoid conflict.
● Private Judging or Arbitration
Need more privacy or a faster timeline than the public court system allows? We can guide you through these confidential and efficient alternatives.
Our goal is always the same: to help you achieve a fair resolution with as little emotional and financial stress as possible.
