Even though I am an Attorney, I can not and will not draft the court documents for your divorce.
"It is improper for a lawyer who mediated a divorce settlement to draft a proposed judgment of dissolution of marriage, marriage separation agreement and joint parenting agreement for unrepresented parties.
"When drafting said documents for these unrepresented litigants, the lawyer-mediator moves beyond the role of mediator and takes on the role of lawyer representing both parties. This creates a conflict of interest that the lawyer-mediator cannot cure." (Source: Illinois State Bar Association Advisory Opinion on Professional Conduct, Opinion No. 04-03).
