Divorce Mediation
What is Divorce Mediation?
Less Hostility
Divorce Mediation is a civil and effective approach to divorce. Couples who want to bring their marriage to an end without hostility and resentment are finding mediation to be ideal. Divorce mediation is an unbiased process, allowing both voices to be heard and respected. Fairness reduces conflict and promotes civility. Mediation is a valuable service and not unnecessarily expensive.
Productive Negotiations.
Your skilled mediator is a neutral third party guiding and assisting both of you through the divorce process. First, all necessary information is gathered and disclosed. Honesty and full disclosure by you and your spouse is important. With information and knowledge the important issues can be discussed and areas of agreement can be found. In a mediated divorce it is easier to remain focused on the important issues by maintaining peaceful negotiations.
Attorneys are not Required
In an uncontested divorce attorneys are not required if that's what you prefer. Why pay an attorney to do what you can do for yourself. Your qualified professional mediator works with you and your spouse to negotiate in a productive manner, and provide guidance to the divorce process.
Benefits of Mediation:
* A comfortable and safe atmosphere for difficult discussions.
* Both spouses are treated fairly.
* Your voice will be heard.
* The couple is in control of decision making.
* Some cases can avoid court.
* Confidential and cost effective.
* Easier to fit into your busy life
* Much faster resolution.
* Promotes mutual respect and dignity.
Better Outcomes
Couples using divorce mediation are more satisfied with the process when compared to couples going through a typical adversarial divorce. Couples who use divorce mediation spend less time and money with less conflict and frustration. More importantly, mediation keeps you and your spouse in control of your divorce.
Less Time, Less Cost
Mediation sessions are scheduled for 1 to 2 hours depending on your needs and available time. A typical Mediation can be accomplished in 3 to 8 sessions, depending on the complexity your situation. Mediation session fees are paid as you go, with a fee to cover the cost of document review, and writing the Memorandum Of Understanding outside of regular meetings. In this way you are in control of your divorce costs, and you proceed at a rate that works best for you.
