Jacksonville Family Law Mediation Attorney

Avoid Court – Choose Mediation!

The divorce process can create emotional, legal, and financial setbacks, which can leave you feeling overwhelmed and helpless in the fight to settle your marriage. The conflicts that arise force you to go to court, putting your divorce settlement in the hands of a judge. That is why you need to take steps to avoid the additional time, finances, and stress that come with the court process by undergoing an alternative way to settle your divorce.

At the Law Offices of Jason K.S. Porter, P.A., we offer insightful mediation services, helping you and your spouse settle outside of all the court chaos. Our Jacksonville family mediation lawyers encourage open communication and promote effective decision making, while brainstorming and guiding the couple through the process.

Is Mediation Right for My Divorce?

Through mediation, you and your spouse will sit down to discuss various aspects concerning your divorce with the presence of a mediator who is a neutral third party member. The mediator provides guidance and insight regarding fair settlements for both parties. The mediation process has an organized and direct approach to settle your marriage and strives toward reaching mutual agreements.

The various topics discuss include some of the following:

To begin the process, tax documents, mortgage information, financial statements, insurance policies, and other documents will be gathered. Also, both spouses will express their goals, various concerns, and priorities they have to ensure each spouse is clear about their overall objectives. Then negotiating will begin until agreements are met. If the mediation process is not successful, a couple may have to go to court to have their divorce settled.

    "He prepared our family through each and every step."

    "Bad things happen to good families and people” That is one of the first things Jason said to me and my son. The laws are set to protect us. However, the law can be black and white when there are several shades of grey. If a man has a beer in his own house after coming back from war but is only 20, should his dad be charged for contributing to the delinquency of a minor? Have you ever done something now looking back, it may not have been the best decision but nothing happened? That was not the case a few years ago to my family. A bad decision, one I am sure many of us have done in our younger days. A bad decision was made and it could have ruined a young man’s future. The courts are busy and things can fall through the cracks; I was making sure my son was not one of them. I knew Jason had worked for the District attorney’s office so he knew both sides of the law. He knew what the other side was going to do and say because he was there for many years. He prepared our family through each and every step. He made sure that we were proactive “getting ducks in a row” so to speak. If there was something mentioned, we had already taken care of it and showed no history and really no where for the other side to go. What could have been jail time ended up being a bump in the road. No one can promise anything is a sure thing. Jason did not make any promises he was not prepared to keep. He told us what normally happens, and what he was going to try for and he did. I rather have someone say there is a 70/30 chance than, “sure this is no problem, don’t worry about it”. We do worry about it. It is our lives or one of someone we love. Some cases may not be life or death, but they all are between a life that could be and a life that never will be. Jason understands that and approached it as if was his brother standing next to him. Every now and then, I will look at my son when eating dinner or something and think, if it was not for Jason and his group, I would have to visit my son to see him. I thanked God for Jason being there then, and have every day since.

    "I love this law firm..."
    Hi my name is Nina and I am writing this review for the public to know that Marlene Hordkin she is an excellent attorney she will go to bat for you. She is compassionate , intelligent , has morals and values she will go the distance to see that your voice is heard and that your case is presented clearly before a judge and that all the evidence is brought into light. Mrs. Hordkin is an amazing woman and an attorney and if you ever need help I suggest that you call her immediately. I want to personally thank you again Marlene you are amazing and the world needs more like you. God bless you!

    "They were professional, attentive, and got me an acceptable settlement in a timely manner."
    I used them for a personal injury case. They were professional, attentive, and got me an acceptable settlement in a timely manner. This helped greatly to get me back on my feet financially. Thank you very much.

    "This firm is head and shoulders above anyone."
    I met Jason 13 years ago in a case I had. He wasn't my first choice of lawyer originally. Our original lawyer was unable to perform the task needed at the time. Jason took our case over and worked his magic in the courtroom. People, the is no substitute for a court case. This firm is head and shoulders above anyone. If you want to go generic with your cereal that's fine. You can buy Fruit Rings instead of Froot Loops. But when choosing an attorney and your life is on the line, go with this firm. You get what you pay for. And by Picking Porter, you get so much more. Since then my entire family has used this firm for random cases. All of which we have prevailed. Most recently, Chris Craun family law attorney has helped us win yet another case. His outstanding outlook and attention to the details and knowledge of the law was the difference. Chris comes from this same tree. They know people and the law. Do not mess up by acquiring sub-par representation. You should pick Porter before your counterpart does!!!

    "If you are in need of an attorney, you won't go wrong with Jason."
    Jason is a fantastic attorney. He has been our attorney for years. He was highly recommended to me and I'm so glad he was. I can call him ANYTIME and he will talk with me. If you are in need of an attorney, you won't go wrong with Jason.

    "He is our family attorney forever."
    There are times when you may need unforeseen legal assistance and your scared and don't have a clue if youre making the right choice. The decision is not an easy one when it's based on your family and life. You worry if they have your best interest at heart, if they know enough, if they know the right people and it's very emotional & confusing. Ten years ago my family was faced with the worst nightmare any mother could ever imagine & I prayed to God to make the right decision and I did. Meeting Jason Porter & his assistant Darlene C. (she's been with him longer than that), was the best in my life in my family's life. Jason doesn't have a big office turn around, in fact I have watched his office grow to the success it is today. His staff stays because they know they are with a terrific guy & great attorney. I can go on and on and mean every word from the bottom of my heart but the are truly no words to describe the great outcomes he has had for 2 of my sons on separate occasions. Unfortunately, we don't live in a society anymore where "boys will be boys". There are way too many laws and not enough of societal morality (due to a change of the times). Boys may get in trouble, they did get in trouble but with their unfortunate choices, my choice was the better in retaining Jason and his law firm. He is our family attorney forever.
