White Plains NY Divorce Mediation Attorney
The divorce process can take several different forms, depending on the choices and circumstances of the specific couple involved.
While it can be said that all divorces are both stressful and emotionally difficult, the choice of divorce mediation can potentially diminish cost, animosity and conflict by creating a less adversarial environment in which to dissolve a marriage and settle other divorce-related matters.
Among the benefits of Divorce Mediation:
- Generally faster and less expensive than a litigated divorce. The mediation process is normally shorter and less costly than a litigated divorce, as the emphasis is on cooperation, confidentiality, and open communication.
- Divorce mediation allows the couple to negotiate and resolve conflict without court appearance. It provides alternative dispute resolution without litigating in court, a process which can be far more time-consuming, costly, and acrimonious.
- Increased privacy and confidentiality for the couple involved, creating a more rational and non-combative atmosphere in which to better decide their family’s future.
- Mediation can cover a wide range of divorce-related issues: Division of Assets, Child Support, Parenting Schedules, Child Custody and Visitation and Spousal Support.
- Final decisions are made by the couple involved. Divorce mediation provides both spouses the means to discuss and negotiate the issues most important to them in a more neutral environment and come away with mutually satisfactory agreements.
- The cooperative nature of a mediated divorce allows both spouses to have more control over the process.
- Since mediated divorces tend to be less confrontational, they can minimize divorce trauma on both the couple and their children. Mediation aims to be a cooperative process, reducing stress and hostility for all parties concerned.
