Divorce mediation is a voluntary and confidential process that allows couples to reach agreements on various aspects of their divorce or separation with the help of a neutral third party. If you're considering divorce mediation, it's essential to understand how the process works clearly. In this blog, we will explore the steps involved in divorce mediation, providing valuable insights into what to expect.
 

Divorce and separation can be incredibly challenging, not only for the couple involved but also for the entire family. Traditional litigation can often exacerbate conflicts and strain relationships in such situations. Fortunately, family mediation offers a more constructive and peaceful alternative. In this blog, we will explore the benefits of family mediation for divorce and separation, helping you understand why it can be the right choice for you and your family

Going through a divorce or separation can be an overwhelming and emotionally challenging time for any couple. Untangling lives, assets, and emotions can often feel like an uphill battle. That's where a skilled and experienced divorce mediator can make a world of difference.
A divorce mediator is a neutral third party who assists couples going through a divorce in reaching mutually agreeable solutions to their disputes and issues. A divorce mediator's role differs from that of a lawyer or judge. Instead of advocating for one party's interests, a mediator acts as a facilitator, guiding the couple through the divorce process and helping them make decisions together. The mediator primarily promotes collaboration, reduces conflict, and fosters a cooperative environment.

Divorce mediation can be a more amicable and cost-effective alternative to traditional divorce proceedings. The mediator assists the couple in identifying and discussing various aspects of their divorce, such as parenting plan, visitation schedules, property division, maintenance, and other relevant issues. In this blog, we will discuss the qualities you should look for in a divorce mediator to ensure you have the best possible maintenance during this difficult time.
 

Divorce is challenging for everyone involved, especially during such a trying time as the COVID-19 pandemic. The added stress and uncertainty made it difficult for couples to communicate and negotiate with each other, making the process less efficient and more complicated.

Sometimes, no matter how hard you try otherwise, it looks like your upcoming divorce may not be as civil as the two of you thought it was going to be. People, whether it be lawyers, friends, family and/or co-workers, have told you to not trust your spouse, to close joint bank accounts before they do first and try to talk you into doing this that you and your spouse agreed you did not want to do. This situation is the perfect one for divorce mediation vs. litigating in court, as the goal of mediation is to reach an agreement that works without spending your money on unnecessary attorney fees, spending significant time in court and getting away from the civil divorce you both agreed to in the first place before everyone started giving you their opinion and advise. 

Trying to navigate a marriage that has sadly broken down can be emotionally and financially challenging for both partners and their families. Therefore it’s always wise to attempt to mediate rather than getting divorced with attorneys in court. However, many misperceptions mislead clients into believing that divorce mediation may not be productive, which cannot be further from the truth.
