Mediation - Frequently Asked Questions

What is Mediation?

Mediation is a process through which individuals try to resolve disagreements outside of court with the help of a trained and impartial third party. The elements of mediation are:

• empowerment

• win-win

• communication

• good will

• resolution

• mutual gain

• self-determination

What is Divorce Mediation?

Divorce can be a time of change, growth, and adjustment. Or it can be a time of fighting and bitter conflict. The focus of mediation is on empowerment and recognition not conflict and litigation. The mediation process puts you in charge of creating a fair settlement which will allow you to go on with your life with your dignity and respect intact. A mediator can help you work out visitation, property division, child support, and alimony issues.
