Negotiation and Resolution in a Separate, Evenhanded Setting
Many family courts, including the Charleston County court, require mediation before any case proceeds to trial. Such mediation helps the already crowded court dockets and additionally has multiple other important advantages. These advantages are present in most cases, including child custody, relocation, and property valuation and division cases:
- Parties have control over the result, rather than having a judge issue a ruling;
- Provides a less formal proceeding than a trial, resulting in significantly reduced costs;
- Results in less damaged relationship between parents who will often continue to interact throughout the lives of their children.

We settle most cases which go to mediation. However, in the unusual circumstance when mediation is either not successful or would not be beneficial, Beverly Ballinger has 25 years litigation experience to zealously and effectively advocate for her client should the case go to trial.
