Austin, Texas: Attorney Mediator for Divorce Cases

When a marriage is ending, there are several ways to work through the legal process. In many situations, the best way to proceed may be divorce mediation or a collaborative divorce — both of these processes are usually less expensive than litigation and more effective in the long run because the parties are involved in fashioning the agreements to be incorporated in the court’s order.

In some circumstances, however, it may not be possible to reach an amicable separation or divorce agreement. In such cases, you may be seeking a divorce lawyer who can represent you in divorce litigation.

Austin, Texas, family law attorney Linda Stanley, has more than 20 years' legal experience, and she is a trained family law mediator and collaborative divorce attorney. Ms. Stanley is also board certified in family law, which means she has had extensive family law experience.

One of the most valuable services that we provide to our clients is to help them decide which type of divorce process will work best for them and their families.

  • Divorce mediation: Linda Stanley has been mediating cases since 1990 and is one of the few attorneys in the Austin area who will mediate marriage dissolution agreements between spouses without attorneys present for the actual mediation sessions.
