How is divorce mediation different from litigation?
Divorce mediation is a private, cooperative, non-adversarial process in which parties work together to create an agreement that is fair to both sides. It is designed to save time and money and to preserve relationships. Litigation is an adversarial process which is both expensive and time-consuming. Studies show that children suffer more in a high conflict divorce – and that it is the level of conflict that affects the children negatively, not the divorce itself.
