Benefits of Divorce Mediation
Mediation can offer many benefits to families going through a divorce or child custody dispute, including:
​
- Cost-effectiveness: Mediation is typically less expensive than going to court.
- Confidentiality: Mediation is a private and confidential process.
- Control: The parties have more control over the outcome of the mediation process than in court.
- Cooperation: Mediation can promote cooperation and communication between the parties.
- Creativity: Mediation can generate creative and customized solutions that may not be available in court.
Our Mediators are committed to helping you and your family achieve a peaceful and respectful resolution in a timely and affordable manner.
What to Expect
Our mediators will begin by requesting a mediation memorandum statement from each party. This should contain a list of all the major issues that you wish to address during mediation along with a summary of the factual and legal basis for each party's position. Prior to your mediation date, our mediators may wish to have a brief telephone or zoom appointment with each party, separately, in order to get a sense of the issues at hand.​
