What are the Reasons Divorcing Couples Choose 
Mediation Over the Traditional Route?

The Traditional Divorce Process is Based on a ‘Conflict Model’

This model promotes the Divorcing Parties to be Hostile to one another, to Disagree with one another, to Elongate the process of Divorce, to be in Conflict at such a Heightened level that it is impossible for the Divorcing Parties to Agree, and Therefore, an Unknown Third-Party is Required to Decide the Fate of Finances and the Children.

Why? The Conflict Model creates the need to spend Large Amounts of Money on a Divorce. It is a Revenue-Producing Model that takes Control of Major Life Decisions away from the Divorcing Parties.

 Divorce Mediation Is Based On The ‘Facilitative Model’

The Ultimate Goal of Divorce Mediation is to create a Clear, Fair, and Mutually Agreed-Upon Document called a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). This agreement outlines all decisions made during Mediation—including Division of Assets, Parenting Arrangements, Financial Responsibilities, Property Decisions, and any other terms the couple decides together. The Professional Divorce Mediator will assist the parties in the mediation process to decide all Financial terms as well as any applicable guidelines. The Certified Financial Advisors advise on complex and unique financial dynamics such as investment portfolios, pensions, business values, tax implications to arrive at the optimum financial plan for both parties.
Once both parties approve the MOU, it becomes the foundation for an Uncontested Divorce, allowing the entire process to move forward smoothly and efficiently.
Because every term is created through Open Discussion and Guided Negotiation, Both Parties have a True Voice in the Outcome. No One Makes Decisions for You—You Make Them Together.
Our office then uses this completed MOU to Prepare and File along with all the required Court Documents. Once submitted, the Agreement becomes part of the Official Court Order through the Divorce Filing, finalizing your Uncontested Divorce without ever needing to appear in court.

Mediation Offers A Less Costly, Shorter in Length, and a Less Stress-Filled 
Divorce Process Putting the Parties In Control

✓ Faster: No Court Delays. No Long Litigation Timelines. Most Mediated Divorces are Finalized in a Couple of Months.

✓ More Affordable: One Neutral Mediator vs. Two Separate Attorneys dramatically lowers costs.

✓ Less Stressful & Less Hostile: The Focus is Cooperation, Not Conflict. You Work with Each Other, Not Against Each Other.

✓ Private: No Public Court Hearings. Discussions Stay Confidential in a Safe, Controlled Environment.

✓ Empowering: You Make The Decisions—Not a Judge Who Doesn’t Know You or Your Personal Situations.

How can Divorce Mediation Lower The Cost of my Divorce?

If Divorce Cases Are Not Settled by mutual Agreement, You will be going to Trial.

If there are several issues in your case, or if they are very complex, the Attorney Fees and Other Court Costs of going to Trial can be Substantial.

By settling your case with Mediation, you will likely Save Thousands of Dollars in Legal Fees, and End up with the Same or Similar Results as you would in using Attorneys and Judges to Decide your Divorce.
