What Is Divorce Mediation and How It Works

Understanding the Mediation Process

Divorce mediation is a process where you and your spouse work with a neutral third party—our trained mediator—to resolve your divorce issues outside of court. During mediation, you will discuss topics such as property division, child custody, support arrangements, and more. Your mediator will guide the conversation, ensuring that it remains productive and fair.

Unlike traditional divorce litigation, mediation allows you to have control over the outcome of your divorce. It’s a confidential process that fosters open communication, helping you come to mutually agreeable decisions without the need for a long court battle.
