Mediation offers the opportunity for greatly reduced conflict, reduced cost, and agreements reached in far less time than if resolution had to be sought in Court or by way of extended divorce attorney involvement.

Divorce mediation is a voluntary process which provides a way for parties to end their marriage by negotiating the terms of their separation agreement assisted by a skilled and neutral divorce professional. Our attorney mediators all have experienced the destructive nature of divorce litigation and are committed to helping families find a better way towards an agreeable separation.

Divorce Mediation offers:

• A safe, private setting in which parties can design a complete divorce settlement agreement.
• A skilled divorce mediator facilitating the negotiation process. Even those who believe at the outset that their negotiation skills are no match for their partner, or who feel emotionally fragile, quickly discover that a comfortable balance can be reached in their separation.
• Reduced conflict for parents and children.
• A better way to maintain control of the separation agreement to be able to plan for the future.
• Greater confidentiality without public disclosure of personal issues within the divorce.
• Less time and money spent on reaching a divorce settlement agreement.

Although our divorce mediators are experienced attorneys and can explain how the law may apply to the issues raised, they will not provide legal advice to either client. Our mediators may refer their clients to divorce attorneys for consultation throughout the process, in the secure knowledge that the attorneys to whom they refer will honor their client's wish to remain in control of the process and the outcomes. Typically far less attorney time and cost is involved. The family savings need not be depleted.
