Mediated Online Solutions, LLC provides a 100% virtual model that gives every New Yorker, from Manhattan to the Adirondacks, access to affordable, professional divorce mediation without leaving home.
-- Mediated Online Solutions, LLC, a New York-based divorce and family mediation practice, is announcing that its secure virtual platform provides divorce mediation in New York to residents of all 62 counties statewide. This announcement addresses a longstanding gap in the state's family law landscape: couples in rural and underserved regions have historically had little or no local access to a qualified divorce mediator.
By conducting every session through secure, private video conferencing, Mediated Online Solutions, LLC removes geography as a barrier to divorce mediation. Couples in New York City, Long Island, and Westchester now have the same access to experienced divorce mediators as couples in Essex, Clinton, St. Lawrence, and other North Country counties, where in-person divorce mediation services are scarce.
Debra Whitson, Founder and Divorce Mediator at Mediated Online Solutions, LLC
"Divorce mediation shouldn't depend on your zip code," said Debra Whitson, Founder and Lead Mediator at Mediated Online Solutions, LLC. "Every county in New York now has the same access to professional, affordable divorce mediation that used to be available only in the state's largest cities."

Why It Matters: Divorce Mediation Access Across New York
Divorce mediation is a cooperative process in which a trained, neutral mediator, rather than a judge, helps both spouses reach fair agreements on property division, parenting time, child support, and other key issues. Couples who choose a New York divorce mediator over traditional litigation typically save significant time and money while keeping their personal matters private and out of public court records.
Until now, that option has been concentrated in and around major metro areas. Mediated Online Solutions, LLC’s virtual-first model changes that. Now, any New York resident searching for a “divorce mediator near me” regardless of which county they live in, has the ability to work with an experienced New York divorce mediation team from home, on a schedule that fits their life.
New York Divorce Mediators Providing Flexible Availability
Because divorce mediation sessions are conducted entirely online, a New York divorce mediator from Mediated Online Solutions, LLC can meet with clients outside standard business hours, accommodating work schedules, childcare needs, and time zone differences for clients connecting from anywhere in the state or the country. New clients can typically schedule an initial consultation with a divorce mediator within days rather than weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is divorce mediation?
Divorce mediation is a structured, cooperative process where a neutral mediator helps a couple negotiate the terms of their divorce, including property, custody, and finances, without going to court.
How much does a New York divorce mediator cost compared to a divorce attorney?
Because both spouses share a single neutral divorce mediator instead of hiring separate attorneys, divorce mediation typically costs a fraction of traditional litigation, though final cost depends on the number of sessions and complexity of the case.
Is virtual divorce mediation legally valid in New York?
Yes. Agreements reached through virtual divorce mediation are drafted for legal review and can be filed the same as agreements reached in person.
