2 Step Divorces Announces Opening of Office in Fayetteville, GA

FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. - Feb. 4, 2015 - PRLog -- Families in Fayette and Coweta Counties now have a local "2 Step Divorces" office where they can work on transitions such as separation, divorce, and modifications of child support and visitation schedules.  2 Step Divorces is a divorce mediation firm headquartered in Atlanta, that is dedicated to helping couples navigate the hard transitions of breaking up without breaking the bank or breaking the hearts of their children.

Lorene Schaefer, an attorney with over 20 years of experience, is managing the Fayetteville location and has helped parties work through hundreds of issues throughout her career. Ms. Schaefer is a registered domestic relations mediator with the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution and has personal experience facing divorce and mediating the terms successfully.  In mediation, she and her children's father custom tailored a visitation plan and child support plan that has served their children well.

"After spending months and tens of thousands of dollars litigating our divorce, we participated in mediation.  Divorce mediation was a great opportunity for us to work together on solutions rather than spend more time (and money) on the battle," said Ms. Schaefer.  "I believe that divorce mediation should be more available for families, and am excited to be a part of the Fayetteville office to help families avoid the costs - financial and emotional - that my family faced before we mediated."

Ms. Schaefer also believes that when people have good information about divorce and the divorce process, they can avoid making common and costly mistakes.  At the Fayetteville office, Ms. Schaefer teaches a 90-minute seminar called "Crash Course Divorce."  She also teaches a supplemental session on children's issues in divorce, including custody, visitation, child support and more.  This course, Ms. Schaefer says, "is where everyone should start in the divorce process." Registration for the course is online at www.2StepDivorces.com and friends are encouraged to bring divorcing friends or family members and attend the course with them.
