 What Is Mediation?
Mediation is a process by which parties engage in negotiations to resolve their differences with the assistance of a mediator. Mediation is a confidential and compassionate alternative to expensive and time-consuming litigation.
What Is a Mediator's Role?
A mediator is a neutral third party trained in facilitating discussion between you and your spouse in an effort to reach a fair and amicable agreement. The mediator works hand in hand with you to formulate and customize a written agreement that fits your family's individual needs.
What Are the Benefits?
Unlike litigation, the parties never step inside of a courtroom when the mediation is properly conducted. While you are free to retain the services of an attorney, most participants elect to mediate for themselves and save thousands of dollars. Mediation is a cost-effective alternative to litigation to successfully achieve divorce or separation, while resolving issues of custody and visitation, child support, property division, spousal support, and relocation.
Mediation or Litigation
When parties litigate, each party must hire an attorney who typically charges a high hourly rate, ranging from $300 to $500 an hour. However, when you mediate with Divorce Mediation Center of New York, you will receive an affordable fee for the mediation, which is typically less than the cost of one attorney in a litigated matter.
