Q: I am currently seeking mediation in relation to a family dispute.
However, my ex-husband's mother used to work for the attorney that the
mediator works for. My ex's mother DID work alongside the mediator,
therefore, creating a bias situation.
Mediator's are supposed to be independent but, on this occasion, she has been brainwashed by my ex mother-in-law.
What can I do?
A: David's Answer:
Since mediation is voluntary anyway, if you're uncomfortable
using the mediator, then just ask for another one. It's the extremely
rare circumstrances were a prior agreement would lock you into a
particular mediator. - David Bliven, Bronx Child Custody attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
