Benefits of Mediation
Mediation provides an alternative to the traditional
adversarial separation and divorce process. Mediation often
saves time and reduces rather than increases conflict, which is of
particular importance when children are involved. A trained, neutral
mediator can assist you in creating a win-win separation or divorce
agreement.
Mediation lets
you maintain control
Mediation is voluntary and confidential. It takes place
in a private, informal setting, rather than in a public
courtroom.
You make the decisions.
