I provide divorce mediation services for all cities and towns in Nantucket County. With over 1,800 Massachusetts divorces successfully mediated, I am familiar with the Nantucket County Probate and Family Court, its judges, its procedures, and its filing requirements.
All sessions are conducted via Zoom — no need to travel to an office. I prepare every court document and mail them to you with signing instructions and a pre-addressed envelope to the correct courthouse. Most couples complete mediation in two sessions. For a detailed walkthrough, see our mediation service page.
Nantucket County is located in island Massachusetts, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on all sides, approximately 30 miles south of Cape Cod. It is the smallest county in Massachusetts by population. With a population of approximately 14,300, the county seat is Nantucket.
Nantucket
Nantucket real estate is among the most expensive in the United States, and many properties are held in trusts or LLCs for estate planning purposes. Divorce involving trust-held property requires a mediator who understands how these ownership structures interact with Massachusetts equitable distribution law.
The island’s small, close-knit community means privacy during divorce is a particular concern. Mediation is inherently confidential — unlike contested court proceedings where filings become public record, everything discussed in mediation stays private.
Every trip to the mainland for a meeting or hearing requires ferry or air travel and significant time. Zoom mediation eliminates this burden entirely, giving you access to an attorney mediator with over 1,800 completed cases — expertise that is simply not available on-island.
Nantucket County has one Probate and Family Court location.
