Is mediation recommended when the two parties have radically differing views on why the marriage is ending: complications like adultery and claims of abuse?
California is a no-fault divorce state. Consequently, no one involved in the system cares why the divorce is ending. Either party has the right to obtain the divorce, even over the objections of the other party. The law does not require a guilty party and neither do we. Abuse might affect one party’s rights with respect to the children.
