Legal advice on a mediation agreement.

With regards to independent legal advice, we always recommend that both parties receive legal advice when signing. This is a one-time session with a lawyer to review your agreement, ask and have answered important questions, and have a good understanding of the terms in the agreement. At the end of the session, if both yourself and the lawyer are satisfied, the lawyer will witness your signature and attach a certificate of independent legal advice. The other option is to waive legal advice and simply sign with a witness.

Remote signing.

Our family law firm has carefully crafted a simple and easy process to complete the drafting, editing and final signing of your mediation agreement. Once both parties to the agreement approve the final version, we use video conferencing to witness your signature and you can sign the separation agreement electronically via Docusign. If you are seeking independent legal advice on your separation agreement, we offer legal advice over phone and video. We have a network of lawyers that we can help you complete the signing process.
