What Do I Do If My Ex’s New Spouse Interferes with My Parenting?

With so many negative examples of confrontation out there these days, it may be tempting to respond to your ex’s new spouse or significant other by treating it like a road-rage incident or an anonymous angry response on social media. But do not give in to that temptation. AMS Mediation knows that there are other, more effective and productive ways to respond to the interference of your ex-spouse’s new partner’s intrusions in the parenting of your children.

Children and Divorce

If you are in the process of divorcing and you have children, you should consider reaching out to AMS Mediation of Burnsville, Minnesota to settle important aspects of your divorce. AMS has earned a strong reputation in Minnesota for our work with divorcing parents and providing expert parenting support. Our team offers a wide variety of parenting support services that can help parents ensure that their children remain the top priority throughout the process. These services include:

Mediator to Help Change Holiday Kids Schedule

Once the dust has settled after your divorce, you quickly realize that you and your ex-spouse still have to navigate a whole host of issues that may not have been ironed out in your official legal settlement. Co-parenting after a divorce can be complicated to say the least. One issue that often comes up for families is the need (or desire) to change the kid’s schedule from time to time. The holidays present a unique challenge and continue to be an issue even years after a divorce is finalized. AMS Mediation of Burnsville, MN, offers post-divorce mediation services that can assist as families navigate scheduling difficult changes or problems so that families can do what is best for all involved and minimize the conflict along the way.

Child Custody Mediator

Issues surrounding child custody are some of the most difficult, complex and highly contested issues in the entire divorce process. Sharing custody with an ex-spouse who you once loved and now wish to separate from can cause plenty of difficulty. And, the simple idea of not seeing your children each and every day is a huge adjustment for all parents. A child custody mediator can provide neutrality, perspective and a safe and constructive environment for divorcing parents to come up with workable solutions and parenting plans for all types of child custody issues. AMS Mediation specializes in child custody mediation for those in the Burnsville, MN area. Even if resolution seems impossible, our team can help you find common ground and begin building a parenting plan, one step at a time.

Divorce Without Court

The idea of going to court to settle your divorce may be stressful and even intimidating. Communicating about the very personal and private details of your marriage in an open court is daunting enough, but a court battle is often highly contentious very much based on a win/lose premise. Couples who decide to settle their divorce in court spend thousands of dollars and countless hours trying to finalize the separation of their lives, and it can be very difficult. Divorce mediation can allow you and your spouse to decide on all aspects of your divorce without a traditional court battle. Mediation empowers you and your divorcing spouse to make decisions about your divorce that are best for you and your family. The team at AMS Mediation can help facilitate the divorce mediation process for you and your family. We focus on providing divorce and parenting services that are efficient, effective, respectful, informative, and non-judgmental with a specific focus on developing Parenting Plans (also known as custody arrangements) that keep children as the priority and conserving financial resources.
