Choosing Mediation Is The Best Of Both Worlds

Often times when a spouse first contacts me, they have heard horror stories about divorce and how one spouse felt like they were taken advantage of during the process.  They fear not knowing if they can participate in mediation without being represented by a lawyer. They fear settling for less than they think they deserve.

Mediation is RISK FREE.  That's right, I said RISK FREE.  Neither spouse waives any rights they have in case mediation doesn't work out for them. The worst case scenario - which in all of my years mediating divorces I have never seen, is that you and your spouse will not agree about any of the issues.  

Practically, the worst case scenario is that there may be one issue that you can't resolve despite you good-faith attempts.  In that case, the settlement agreement that I draft for you will resolve all of the other issues, and you would only need a Judge to resolve that one open issue for you.  That's a lot better than having the Court resolve all of your issues!  

In my experience, about 70% of the divorces that I have provided my PeacefulSplit® divorce mediation services have settled ALL issues in the very 1st session. I'm sure you are very surprised by that statistic!  However, the comments I mostly hear from spouses after resolving all of their divorce issues is "I can't believe it went so smoothly and peacefully; I didn't expect it to be so easy."
