What is Divorce Mediation?


Divorce mediation stands as a constructive and collaborative approach designed to resolve the complexities of divorce without resorting to lengthy courtroom battles. This method involves a neutral 3rd party mediator that is trained in conflict resolution and family law, who assists divorcing couples in reaching mutually acceptable agreements. A Fair Way Mediation facilitates open communication, guiding discussions on various aspects such as asset division, child custody, visitation schedules, and financial support. Unlike litigation, where a judge makes binding decisions, mediation allows couples to actively participate in shaping their post-marriage arrangements, aiming for compromises that consider both parties' interests and the well-being of any children involved. The process encourages constructive dialogue, promotes understanding, and often results in more peaceful resolutions, reducing the emotional and financial toll that divorce proceedings can inflict.

One of the key strengths of divorce mediation lies in its flexibility and adaptability to the unique circumstances of each couple. It allows divorcing individuals to maintain a sense of control over their futures by encouraging cooperation and promoting a more dignified closure to the marriage. Mediation tends to be more time-efficient and cost-effective than traditional litigation, offering a faster resolution that minimizes the adversarial nature commonly associated with divorce proceedings. While it may not be suitable for all situations, especially in cases involving domestic abuse or extreme power imbalances, for many couples, mediation provides a valuable opportunity to craft tailor-made solutions that align with their specific needs and priorities, paving the way for a smoother transition into post-divorce life.

The Power is in Your Hands


As a trained divorce mediator, our role is not to provide legal advice, but to provide guidance on what could potentially happen should you both end up in court, which neither party will want to do. Ultimately leaving your future in the hands of the court system can be difficult as you can only guess at the outcome until its decided. With mediation, the power is put back in to your hands, you understand your marriage and the ins and outs, and its easier to discuss civilly than going to the courts and letting a judge decide.
