A couple of days ago, my family met with my parents' other child and her spawn in an effort to resolve issues with my parents' trust. We elected to try mediation before going to court.
I can't say it was a totally worthless TEN HOURS, but I will always wonder what a judge would have done had we failed to complete negotiations. There was a lot at stake for my sons, and, in the end, putting that in jeopardy wasn't an option.
What would you do? Accept mediation or risk a "bird in the hand" (even if the bird has p**ped in your hand) in front of a judge?

The problem is who is cutting the pie and who gets what. You have iron clad rights. You know what they are. You have no interest in giving anything up and you should never have to. Take legal advice and let the lawyer maintain your "NO" that they seek to challenge and you get nothing in compromising but an unreasonable intrusion. So lock down your position without any doubt whatsoever. Your rights are law, I would not allow anyone intrude on my rights and anyone attempting to intrude on your rights should be criminalized, restrained , charged with intent/crimes and dully punished. Put that lawyer on point and piss him/her and the judge off too. You are the boss in this so hold your ground.
