Why Choose McNary Law for Sarasota Family Law Mediation?
Our mediation services are led by Melinda Delpech, a Florida Supreme Court-certified family Mediator who brings years of experience handling complex family law disputes in Sarasota. We understand the nuances of marital dissolution, custody, support, and property division. Our role is to facilitate constructive dialogue and help attorneys and their clients resolve disputes efficiently, equitably, and privately.
We work with attorneys who need a reliable, neutral mediator for:
Divorce and separation
Alimony/spousal support disputes
Parenting plans and time-sharing schedules
Child support and modification cases
Property distribution and asset division
Paternity and parental responsibility matters
The Benefits of Mediation in Family Law Cases
Florida courts strongly encourage mediation in family law cases—and for good reason. Mediation:
Saves time and reduces litigation costs
Promotes client empowerment and dignity
Preserves co-parenting relationships
Keeps decision-making in the hands of the parties, not the court
Remains confidential and private, unlike court proceedings
As attorneys know, Sarasota and the Twelfth Judicial Circuit court dockets are crowded. Early mediation can accelerate timelines and foster more sustainable, less adversarial resolutions.
Flexible Formats: In-Person, Remote, or Hybrid
We understand that every case—and every legal team—has different needs. That’s why McNary Law offers three flexible mediation formats for Sarasota family law matters:
In-Person Mediation: Conducted in our professional, private Bradenton office just minutes from downtown Sarasota.
Remote Mediation: Conducted via our business Zoom platform, offering convenience without compromising clarity or connection.
Hybrid Mediation: We simultaneously accommodate participants in-office and remotely through our dedicated Zoom conference room, equipped with high-speed wireless internet and quality audio/video for seamless interaction.
