An increasing number of couples are choosing mediation. They understand that mediation is a more civilized and less expensive alternative to a typical two attorney adversarial dispute. No one can argue that the process of divorce is extremely stressful. When there are children involved it can be even more difficult. When you choose mediation you are the decision maker and you are in control of the final outcome. Ultimately you’ll feel better about the result because you played a part in the decision making process.

Business mediations can be scheduled as quickly as the parties’ request. As long as those involved in the dispute are willing to meet to discuss the issues separating them chances are a mutually agreeable decision can be reached. The advantages of mediating vs. litigating include control over the outcome, control of the process, ability to accommodate multiple parties, privacy, reduction of legal fees, not having to hire outside experts with subject matter expertise, and control over the most important asset we own….our precious time.
