Mediation allows families to resolve disputes outside of the courtroom while maintaining greater control over the outcome
Why Choose Mediation?
Benefits of mediation include:
- A confidential process
- Reduced conflict and stress
- Faster resolution than traditional litigation
- Lower overall costs
- Flexible and creative solutions
- Agreements tailored to your family’s unique circumstances
- Improved communication and cooperation for future co-parenting
When parties create their own agreements, they are often more satisfied with the outcome and more likely to follow through with the terms that they negotiated. While mediation is appropriate in many cases, if may not be suitable for every situation. If there are concerns involving safety, domestic violence, coercion or a significant imbalance of power, additional safeguards – or a different process – may be necessary. During the intake process, those issues can be discussed to determine whether mediation is appropriate.
