When you decide to move forward with a divorce, there are many complex issues that need to be settled including how to divide up all of the property that you and your spouse have shared. This may include furniture, collectables, china, computers, home office equipment, jewelry, clothing, cars, boats and any other personal property that has been shared. This is in addition to financial assets, real estate and debt that you share. You may assume the only way to divide this up fairly is to enlist the support of lawyers and the court system. While that is one path you can follow, mediation is also a very effective tool for helping you and your divorcing spouse divide property equitably and with minimal conflict. If you live in the Burnsville, MN area, AMS Mediation can help with this.
How Do You Divide Property In A Divorce?
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.
Parenting Mediation
Let’s just be honest. Most children do not want their parents to separate and, therefore, divorce is almost always stressful for the children. Divorce not only can increase conflicts between the parents but it can put a strain on the parent-child relationship as well. This of course, is dependent upon how well divorcing couples can manage the stress of divorce for the children. If you are looking to try and resolve parenting issues affordably and calmly, look no further than AMS Mediation. AMS Mediation offers Minneapolis mediation services to parents that are seeking a cost effective and efficient process in finding resolution to parenting issues.

Elite mountain climbers will tell you that touching the summit of Mount Everest is not the mark of a successful expedition. Reaching the summit and sitting atop the peak is only the halfway point. Success is not attained until you and everyone in your climbing party get down to base-camp successfully. Novice climbers, by contrast, are likely to celebrate reaching the peak and forget that their work is only half done at that point.
Help After A High Conflict Divorce In Minnesota
Wouldn’t it be nice if all divorces went so smoothly that you just signed a few papers, and you moved on with your life living separately?

Divorce: A New Beginning
We all know the list of life’s major stressors: a death in the family, a catastrophic illness, loss of job, moving to a new and unfamiliar location, and, of course, divorce. Relating to one another is complex business; relating to another person in an intimate relationship is all the more difficult. And when the promise of happily-ever-after ends in divorce, the prospects associated with moving forward—much less dating—can be daunting.
Parenting Mediation Can Make Divorce Easier
Life is hard, and when divorce is added to the equation, it becomes all the more difficult. We have come to accept that divorce is among the most stressful experiences adults can go through, and that is probably for good reason.

For many people going through divorce, the process is extremely painful, and often it brings out the worst in people. But need it be this way?
