Flexibility

Mediation is designed to be efficient and flexible. Instead of waiting for the assigned court date, couples schedule their sessions to fit their schedule and needs. Mediation appointments with our mediation lawyers can be conducted virtually or in-person, which also allows for greater flexibility.

Faster Outcome

Want your divorce to drag on? Fight over everything. Want to speed up your divorce? Compromise. Mediation allows couples to set the pace in their divorce instead of waiting on the court.

Reduced Costs

In mediation, a couple hires a third party mediator to help work out the details of the divorce which is typically reviewed by a consulting attorney prior to signing an agreement.

Even if a couple cannot settle on every issue, mediation can still be financially beneficial. Instead of litigating every aspect of the divorce, mediation allows a couple to settle on the issues they can compromise on and then litigate the rest.

Greater Control

When a couple resolves their divorce in court, a judge decides the nuances of their settlement. When a couple mediates, they are able to maintain control of their settlement and walk away with an agreement that works for both parties.

Privacy

When an individual goes to court, their divorce proceedings are public record (unless the judge orders the records to be sealed). In meditation, divorce proceedings are confidential and private.

Preservation of Relationships

When children are involved in a divorce, maintaining a civil relationship with the other parent is optimal. Mediation allows parties to reach an agreement that works for each individual and walk away with a working relationship.

Mediation is a possible option at every stage of the divorce, even if you are in the midst of litigation. To learn if mediation is the right fit for your case, schedule a consultation today.
