I have a private mediation coming up. I was wondering how child support plays into a settlement . I do not owe any back support.

Then you’re good; otherwise they would lien your disability benefits.
Are you covered by terms of a construction industry carve-out program?

I was wondering if I had to pay upfront since part of a settlement is for future benefits . I know once I settlement I must resume payments , but I plan on going back to court for this.

No, your payment schedule doesn’t change.

They asked for this private mediation . We have no pending issues so my guess is to settle. So do they have a number set for their lawyer or does he do what he thinks is best. We sent a demand letter years ago so they know where we stand.

Depends on xperience. Generally they give legal a limit.

That makes sense to me. What other reasons would they ask for a private mediation? Also thanks 1171 you have always been their to help with my question and I appreciate it.

What about late checks?
Sometimes they just want to be able to tell the court they tried mediation.

I had checks that came a few days late that's about it. This mediation is private and not through the court system although I did do a court run mediation a while back about a dispute that was settled.
