There's no doubt that divorce hurts everyone involved. If you are interested in getting through the divorce process in the most expeditious manner possible, with the least amount of stress and expense, and the greatest amount of mutual information sharing and communication, then Divorce Mediation may be the best choice for you.

As a Professional Counselor and an experienced and credentialed business executive, our mediation process takes into consideration the "business matters of divorce", i.e. child support, tax implications, etc. as well as the emotional costs of divorce.

Mediation is a voluntary process that either party can leave at any point in time.

Divorce Mediation—Divorce With Dignity

Divorce mediation is an increasingly well-known and accepted process of retaining control over one of the most stressful life experiences you can have. It is a confidential and flexible process that provides the structure for you and your spouse to make decisions and settle conflict between you in a way that helps you to work together as parents after the divorce. Inevitably there will be collateral and emotional damage to the children of divorce. Our mediation process works to minimize this damage and help put into place actions and support to heal the damage as much as is possible.

Benefits of Divorce Mediation include:

• You retain control over the divorce process rather than reliquishing control to adversarial attorneys and a judge.

• You and your spouse are working with shared knowledge, so the process goes faster and provides 1-to-1 controlled negotiations of issues that are important to you. You will hear all that is said. This levels the negotiating field for both parties, and reduces stress levels of parties involved.

• It is less costly than engaging two adversarial attorneys, and your cost is entirely manageable. You can stop mediation at any time. You can bring your attorney to mediation if you feel that is necessary.

• Allows you and your spouse to get through the divorce with less conflict.

• Minimizes the potential fo last minute "surprises" from either party.

The goal of mediation is to help both parties reach as many of their goals as possible in the shortest time, with the least amount of stress, expense, and emotional damage to all parties including the children. It provides a forum where individuals can speak to one another without talking through an attorney and the legal and personal filters that an attorney represents.
