Protecting clients inside and outside of the courtroom:
The Law Office of Clara S. Licata is skilled in negotiation, mediation and litigation - safeguarding your interests every step of the way. If you plan to divorce, consider family mediation first. A mediator can assist both spouses in coming to an agreement on property division, support, custody and parenting time issues. A hallmark of mediation is self-determination -- the parties' right to forge their own settlement. Statistics show that parties who build their own settlements through negotiation and compromise are more satisfied and tend not to resort to post-judgment litigation and enforcement. Clara S. Licata is a New Jersey court-approved family mediator.
