Expert divorce mediation helping even the most adversarial cases reach
resolution with clarity and confidence.
Jan O'Brien
Malooly is a non-attorney divorce mediator with 25+ years of experience.
Mediation offers a proven path to resolution. Here is why more couples are choosing this approach.
Save thousands compared to litigation costs. Mediation typically costs a fraction of what attorneys charge.
While litigation takes 12–24 months, mediation can resolve your case in days or weeks.
A structured, calm approach helps keep discussions productive and reduces emotional strain on everyone involved.
You and your partner make the decisions together. A judge does not decide your family's future.
Unlike court proceedings, mediation is completely private. Each party will have opportunities to have private discussions with the mediator, all of which are 100% confidential and will not be shared with the other party.
Work with an experienced mediator who specializes in guiding even the most difficult cases to agreement.
Everything you need to reach a fair, court-approved agreement—all in one comprehensive session.
Court-ready MSA document that can be filed directly—no attorney needed.
Fair, organized discussion to divide property and debts equitably, as needed.
Thoughtful guidance on custody arrangements that prioritize your children's well-being, as needed.
Accurate child support and spousal support calculations using court-approved formulas, as needed.
Official printout prepared for court filing with accurate figures, as needed.
Transparent conversation about support arrangements that work for both parties, as needed.
3-hour mediation sessions for those who want to settle their divorce with a neutral third party without attorneys.
A clear, structured path from first conversation to signed agreement—no surprises.
We start with a free conversation to understand your situation and determine if mediation is the right fit for you.
You'll receive a checklist of documents to bring. We review everything together before your first session.
During your 3-hour session, we work through all issues systematically. Sessions are calm, focused, and productive.
Walk out with your completed Marital Settlement Agreement ready to file with the court.
