One of the most common issues that comes up after a divorce is finalized is a parent that decides to relocate out of the area and/or to another state. This could be due to a job offer, remarriage, the need to care for an aging parent, or a number of other reasons. Whether it is the custodial or non-custodial parent that relocates, this situation will almost certainly require a modification of the parenting plan.

Divorcing couples who are also business partners often decide that it is in their best interests to continue owning and operating their business together. If you and your ex-spouse chose to go this route, you may want to consider post-divorce mediation to work out an operating agreement for your business. Chances are you never set up a formal agreement when you were married, but now that you are no longer personally involved, it may be time to create guidelines, in writing, governing your business partnership.

On the other end of the extreme, you and your ex may have tried to remain business partners but found out over time that it was not a good idea. If this situation describes you, post-divorce mediation may be helpful to lay out the terms and conditions of a business separation. For example, will one of you be buying the other one out? Will you be selling the business to an outside party? Will you be dissolving the partnership and liquidating any outstanding assets?
