How divorce mediation works

Divorce mediation helps resolve three primary issues: how to divide current assets and debts; how to meet the family’s future financial needs; and how to share in parenting responsibilities.

Typically a divorce mediation has three phases: 1) A Complimentary Consultation 2) Information Gathering & Options Discussions 3) Final Negotiations & Agreement.

A skilled divorce mediator helps couples clarify their current and future financial needs. This creates a framework for them to create options that meet their individual needs and interests and those of their children. With feasible choices on the table, the mediator helps them negotiate differences and decide on a plan that best suits them, drafting it into an Agreement that can be filed with the court.

Divorce mediation works well and its Agreement is likely to be honored by both parties because the couple makes all the decisions.
