family mediator
Domestic dispute resolver
A family mediator is a neutral third party who helps family members resolve disputes—typically during divorce, custody disagreements, or inheritance conflicts—without going to court.
The mediator facilitates communication and negotiation but doesn't make decisions or take sides: We hired a family mediator to work out the custody arrangement.
The goal is reaching agreements that all parties can accept.
