Mediation can be a far superior approach to traditional litigated divorce, but why is it better?
- Litigated divorce costs an average of nearly $20,000 and can take months or even years to resolve.
- Litigated divorce is an adversarial process that can stress families and finances.
- Litigated divorce means that critical outcomes are taken out of your control.
- The adversarial process of litigated divorce often exacerbates conflict, causing bitterness and antagonism between parties that can last decades.
Mediated Divorce is faster, cheaper, and less polarizing, here’s why:
- You have one impartial mediator working towards the best solution, for everyone.
- You keep control of the process, no court involvement until the end.
- Unlike divorce court, whose proceedings are public record, the process of Mediated Divorce is confidential.
- Mediated Divorce can be a faster process, so even the most complex mediation costs a fraction of the typical litigated divorce.
- Through Mediated Divorce, parties can develop unique solutions that often aren’t an option in a litigated divorce.
