Frequently Asked Questions

Equitable Mediation Services is a specialized firm offering online divorce mediation and divorce coaching to couples seeking an amicable, confidential alternative to litigation. Led by Joe Dillon, MBA, and Cheryl Dillon, CPC, the firm provides step-by-step guidance to resolve issues like child custody, alimony, and property division—entirely over Zoom.

Equitable Mediation Services operates in six U.S. states: California, New Jersey, Washington, New York, Illinois, and Pennsylvania. The practice is virtual and available exclusively to couples residing in these states.

Not necessarily. While the service is best suited for couples committed to an amicable divorce, even those with moderate tension can benefit from structured mediation sessions and coaching support to stay focused on resolution—not conflict.

Their unique approach combines:

  • Divorce mediation with real financial expertise
  • Divorce coaching to provide support for the emotional challenges of divorce
  • A proven process to keep negotiations on track
  • A thorough agreement to ensure all issues are thoroughly documented
  • No limit to the number of mediation sessions, for one customized flat fee
  • A 98% case resolution rate

This holistic model stands apart from traditional lawyer-driven divorce or barebones DIY platforms.

The firm offers a custom flat-fee model with no limit on the number of sessions and full support until an agreement is reached. There is no hourly billing. The cost depends on each couple’s unique case complexity, not time.

Yes. Equitable Mediation helps couples create customized, practical parenting plans that prioritize children’s needs while addressing co-parenting logistics and legal custody arrangements.

Ideal clients include:

  • Couples married 15–30 years
  • Business owners
  • High-net-worth individuals
  • Employees or owners of tech or start-up firms
  • Dual-income professional parents seeking out-of-the-box co-parenting solutions

And any clients needing help with the financial aspects of divorce, such as child support, alimony, and property division of assets, including retirement accounts, stock options, or investment portfolios.

No. Clients are welcome to obtain a lawyer’s perspective on a particular issue or retain one if they so choose. However, they are not required at any point in their divorce to work with or speak to an attorney. The decision is entirely up to them.

Joe Dillon, MBA, a seasoned divorce mediator with deep financial experience, leads all divorce mediation negotiation sessions with both spouses present. Cheryl Dillon, CPC, a Certified Divorce Coach, provides emotional and strategic support through one-on-one coaching sessions.

Prospective clients can begin by scheduling a Free Discovery Call with Cheryl or a Free Initial Meeting with Joe, available via the Get Started page.
