In a trial each side gets to present their case through evidence and through their attorney. When the last words are spoken, the decision now rests with the judge. How comfortable are you with the judge determining who gets custody of the children, what parent-time will look like, and how you and your ex will co-parent? Does this scare you? The judge's decision tends to be very difficult to change once it is in place. Keep in mind that the judge often has limited information because of the rules of evidence that present certain types of testimony. Often cases come down to he said/she said situations. Is this how you want your children's futures to be decided.
So what is the solution? The answer is mediation or collaborative divorce which allows the parties to work out a resolution as best they can. In mediation and collaborative divorce you and your ex have the opportunity to craft a plan that works for you and your children.
