What Is Family Law Mediation?

Many people choose family law mediation because it allows them to resolve their issues in a more private, less adversarial setting. Divorce mediation is a process where a neutral third party, called a mediator, helps you and the other party discuss your issues and concerns. The mediator does not decide who is right or wrong, nor do they tell you how to resolve your dispute. Instead, the mediator helps you both find solutions that make sense and address your concerns.

The process is both less formal than court and more confidential, allowing you to speak openly without fear of your words being used against you later. The mediator can help overcome communication obstacles and keep discussions focused on resolving the dispute.

Some of the other benefits that many people enjoy about divorce mediation include:

1. Impartiality: The mediator is a neutral party who helps facilitate discussion without taking sides.
2. Self-determination: You and the other party are the decision-makers, not a judge or jury.
3. Improved communication: The mediator helps both sides listen to each other and explore solutions.
4. Enforceable agreements: Agreements reached in mediation are put in writing and become legally binding.
5. Flexible solutions: Mediation allows for creative solutions tailored to your specific needs.
6. Cost and time efficiency: Mediation can be quicker and less expensive than going to court.
7. Certainty: You know what you have agreed to, rather than gambling on a judge or jury’s decision.
8. Understanding: Mediation promotes a better understanding of the reasons behind the dispute.

Preparing for mediation is crucial for achieving reasonable financial and child custody settlements. As your attorney, I will prepare you ahead of time to get the most out of the mediation process.
