What is Mediation?

Mediation is a non-adversarial process that helps a couple to dissolve their marriage once the decision to divorce is made.  It is not a substitute for the services of an attorney.  It does allow you and your spouse to remain in control of the negotiating process and to make your decisions yourselves.

Mediation eliminates the aggressive bargaining and legal games played in an adversarial divorce.  The end result is a divorce that costs less, takes less time and supports the development of mature problem solving skills.
