What is Divorce Mediation?

Divorce Mediation is a sensible alternative to an expensive, time-consuming legal battle. Instead of going to court, you and your spouse meet with an impartial, highly-trained mediator who helps you address your issues, generate options and create a mutually acceptable agreement. And since the process involves direct communication and is focused on resolution (rather than being adversarial), agreement can often be reached in a matter of weeks and for a fraction of the cost of going to court. The entire process is confidential and the participants make all the decisions and maintain full control over the outcome (no agreement is reached unless both parties agree).
