What are the benefits of divorce mediation?

Divorce mediation covers all the important topics that a conventional divorce would cover, simply packaged up and presented differently. The very premise of mediation is that couples are no longer working at odds with one another. Rather, both individuals are encouraged to be open and honest with one another without the threat of court breathing down their necks.

During this process, a mediator acts as a go-between. Each spouse can retain the assistance of their own attorney who can help guide and support along the way.

The mediator is encouraged to follow certain guidelines, including:

  • Never pushing for an agreement between both parties
  • Remaining neutral through the process
  • Always working to preserve the mutual good of the spouses

Divorce mediation is advantageous as it allows a couple, not the court, to be in control. Mediated divorces are generally solved quicker and with a much greater sense of privacy. For families with children, mediation is a great way to shield them from unnecessary conflict and offers the ability to create a family plan that sincerely works for the circumstances at hand.
