Scurlock Family Law, LLC offers professional mediation and settlement conference services to help parties resolve disputed issues efficiently and collaboratively. Our mediator, Jessica A. Sweeney, Licensed Legal Paraprofessional (LLP), brings over 12 years of family law experience — both as a paralegal and LLP, including extensive work with high-conflict cases — to every mediation session. Jessica serves as a skilled neutral facilitator, guiding parties toward mutually agreed resolutions without exercising any decision-making authority.
Navigating the terms of a separation or divorce is rarely simple. The process can feel emotionally exhausting, particularly when the parties involved are seeking very different outcomes. After more than a decade working in family law, we have seen firsthand how contested litigation compounds an already difficult situation — adding significant financial cost, prolonged timelines, and emotional strain on everyone involved, including children.
We believe that with the right support, any family can reach a positive resolution. Our mediation sessions provide a calm, neutral, and judgment-free environment where parties can de-escalate conflict, reduce stress, and work through even the most complex disagreements — without the adversarial nature of courtroom litigation.
Divorce rarely produces a result that feels entirely ideal for either party. What mediation offers is a practical middle ground — bridging the gap between handling your separation entirely on your own and engaging attorneys to contest every unresolved issue in court. For self-represented (pro se) clients in particular, mediation provides access to an impartial professional with legal expertise who can guide both parties toward a mutually acceptable agreement, without the need for each party to retain individual legal counsel.
When you choose mediation as a self-represented client, you can expect:
We guide you through the process from start to finish
We handle the paperwork so you don't have to navigate it alone
Clear boundaries are established to keep discussions productive and respectful
Reach a fair outcome more quickly and with less conflict than traditional litigation
Choosing mediation over litigation means more than just resolving disputes — it means protecting your finances, reclaiming your time, and creating space for your family to move forward with less conflict and greater peace of mind.
We provide a confidential, good-faith mediation process in which all statements and communications are privileged and inadmissible in any legal proceeding. Parties are encouraged to attend with or without their own independent legal counsel, and each party retains the right to withdraw at any time. Jessica’s experience in high-conflict family law matters equips her to navigate even the most complex disputes with professionalism and composure.
No matter where you are in the separation or divorce process, we offer practical, creative solutions tailored to your circumstances. From the earliest stages of separation to cases that have stalled in litigation, our mediation services address a wide range of disputed issues, including division of assets and debts, division of business interests, spousal maintenance, child support obligations, parenting plans, and other matters unique to your family.
Our mediation sessions are conducted virtually via Zoom, allowing us to serve clients across the state — whether you are located along the Front Range or on the Western Slope. Remote mediation provides the same high-quality, confidential process from the comfort and convenience of your own home or office, eliminating the need for travel.
