Zoom meetings have been a lifesaver during the COVID-19 pandemic, giving us the ability to connect with friends and family and attend work meetings from home. Zoom allows for virtual one on one chat sessions, and/or virtual group meetings depending on the needs of the user. Zoom has quickly become a popular platform because of its ease of use and ability to move things forward at work in your personal life without in person
The threat of the spread of COVID-19 has pushed many couples that are seeking a divorce to pursue non-litigation options to settle the issues between them. The pandemic has caused many significant delays in the Minnesota court system, with backlogs and concerns about in-person meetings.

You have probably heard of the old adage that change is the only constant in life. This has been especially true in the year 2020. Families in the Minnesota area have been dealing with many changes related to the COVID 19 pandemic, including social distancing, getting used to wearing masks, and many of us have faced job loss, reduced income and/or anxiety about the potential spread of illness. In addition, some local families continue to go through other difficult changes, including divorce and changes to important family dynamics. It is important to find the support that you and your family need for the changes that you face. If you are facing divorce, AMS Mediation is offering virtual divorce services for families living in Burnsville, MN. We understand how stressful change can be and can offer you support, guidance
Handling the many aspects of a divorce is extremely difficult and overwhelming for couples. In addition to offering divorce mediation services, Amber Serwat of AMS Mediation offers divorcing couples coaching in Burnsville, MN. Divorce coaching is different from divorce mediation in that the role of a divorce coach is to provide support and guidance for one party. A mediator remains neutral and helps a couple find common ground
We have heard a lot in the last few months about how the Covid-19 pandemic does not care about borders, religious and political affiliation, and most other categories that organize our society. This is true—the virus that has changed our world so dramatically in such a short time does not care about much other than spreading to a new carrier, whoever that may be. But the novel coronavirus is not the only force of nature
