Mediation may be the answer.

Try to avoid going to court over child custody issues. If you and your ex-spouse can´t agree on custody issues, try using a mediator. They are trained professionals and can frequently find creative and equitable solutions. Using a mediator will usually be a lot less painful than a lengthy court proceeding for both you and your children. To find a mediator, look under "Mediator Services" in your yellow pages or ask your divorce lawyer to recommend one.

Mediation

Sitting down with a mediator prior to filing for divorce can save you thousands of dollars and a great deal of heartache. You will have the opportunity to divide all assests, as well as plan for your children rather than have someone do this for you. Also with a mediator, you can see if you really need a divorce lawyer, or if you can have a do it yourself divorce.
