Divorce Mediation

When beginning a divorce, litigation typically also begins, with the two parties working to achieve their agendas. 

Divorce mediation takes a different approach. During the mediation process, there are three individuals: the divorcing couple and the mediator. The mediator is a third party that helps to negotiate an agreement acceptable to both parties. 

The trained mediator does not provide legal or financial advice, but facilitates communication. The open exchange of information frees up both parties to negotiate with each other in confidence, which means that mediation typically takes less time and money to resolve a conflict.
 
A mediator’s purpose is not to give advice, but to facilitate a way for a couple to minimize the impact of divorce on their lives. 

Communication is key in mediation. During the mediation process, the couple can openly discuss their concerns and determine their own futures. This approach serves to benefit everyone involved.
