🤝 Family Law Mediation Services with Nicole Vette

Looking for a faster, more affordable way to resolve your divorce or custody dispute? Mediation may be the answer.

Nicole Vette is a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Law Mediator who helps families resolve their legal issues through compassionate, solution-focused mediation—without the stress or cost of drawn-out litigation.

Whether you're navigating a divorce, parenting plan, or custody dispute, Nicole offers virtual and in-person mediation designed to bring resolution with efficiency, respect, and control.

🌿 What Is Family Law Mediation?

Mediation is a confidential, voluntary, and neutral process that allows both parties in a family law dispute to work together toward a mutually acceptable agreement. Unlike going to court, mediation puts the power to resolve your case back in your hands—not a judge’s.

As your mediator, Nicole:

  • Helps both parties communicate constructively

  • Proposes creative, custom-tailored solutions

  • Keeps the process neutral, respectful, and on track

  • Guides you toward agreement on critical issues like child custody, parenting plans, alimony, property division, and more

💼 Why Choose Mediation Over Litigation?

  • Cost-effective: Mediation is typically a fraction of the cost of a courtroom battle.

  • Faster results: You can often resolve your case in weeks, not months or years.

  • Confidential process: What’s said in mediation stays private and can’t be used in court.

  • More control: You and the other party control the outcome—not a judge.

  • Preserves relationships: Mediation encourages cooperation, making it ideal for co-parents and families.

Frequently asked questions about mediation

Do I have to mediate?

Mediation is a voluntary process so typically the answer is no. However, in certain counties, a court may require parties to mediate prior to contested hearings or trial.

Do you have to meet in the same room with the other party?

No, we can do the mediation in two separate conference rooms (or virtual conference rooms) so that you do not have to see the other party in person.

What if I do not settle?

Most cases resolve in mediation. However, it is not always possible. If a settlement is not reached in mediation then you can always try again once additional information is known. Many times, settlement is not reached because one party has questions about financial information, needs more time to investigate issues, or is just not emotionally ready to reach the end of the case. If an impasse is reached, then parties submit their legal disputes to the court for determination.

How are the fees divided between the parties?

Most often, mediation fees are equally divided. However, depending on the financial circumstances of the parties, sometimes one party pays all of the mediation fees. In other situations, the fees are broken down on a pro-rata basis based on the income differential between the parties.
