Our Process

Step 1: Initial Divorce Mediation Consultation

During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss your unique situation, your concerns, and the goals you have for the mediation process. This first meeting allows us to understand your needs and explain how mediation can help resolve disputes without going to court.

Step 2: Gathering Information for Divorce Mediation

We’ll work with both parties to gather important information, such as financial documents, property details, and parenting plans. This step ensures that both sides have access to all necessary information to make informed decisions during the mediation process.

Step 3: Identifying Key Divorce Issues

We help both parties identify the key issues that need to be resolved, such as division of assets, custody arrangements, or spousal support. By narrowing down the core topics, we can guide the conversation to the areas that matter most.

Step 4: Facilitating Divorce Mediation Discussions

With our mediator’s guidance, you and your spouse will engage in open, respectful discussions about the issues at hand. We encourage collaboration and help both parties find common ground, ensuring that everyone’s voice is heard.

Step 5: Drafting a Divorce Settlement Agreement

Once agreements are reached on all key issues, we’ll help you formalize these decisions in a clear, legally binding document. This agreement will outline the terms of your divorce or separation, ensuring that both parties are on the same page moving forward.

Step 6: Final Review and Filing of the Divorce Agreement

After reviewing the final agreement to ensure accuracy and satisfaction, I encourage you to have it reviewed by an attorney of your choice. Once the agreement is signed, you will hire an attorney or represent yourself to file the Complaint for Divorce and have the agreement part of your divorce judgment.

Why Choose Divorce Mediation Over Litigation?

We believe in empowering couples to make decisions that work best for their families. Our mediation process is designed to be less stressful, more cost-effective, and quicker than traditional litigation. It allows you to maintain control over the outcome rather than leaving decisions to a judge.

Divorce Mediation Costs vs. Litigation Costs

One of the key benefits of mediation is the significant cost savings compared to litigation. Court proceedings can be time-consuming and expensive, with attorney fees, court costs, and extended timelines driving up expenses. Divorce mediation offers a more affordable alternative, often resolving disputes in fewer sessions and avoiding costly legal battles.
