Mediation is a cost efficient method used by couples to make flexible
agreements on issues without the high costs of litigation. This alternative
dispute resolution method is not for everyone but for couples who can sit
together and have a good sense of how they would resolve their own situation,
especially where effective communication between the couple has not been
lost, and you are still able to talk to one another. Both parties must also
commit to listen to one another and understand each other's point of view.
When these conditions are present, mediation should be considered instead
of more costly and potentially polarizing solutions.
In family law and divorce mediation, the parties meet each other on a level
playing field with a certified mediator who serves as a neutral third party to
facilitate appropriate and reasonable solutions to all the issues that need to
be decided. The mediator does not decide the dispute, but assists the parties
in communication so that they can settle the dispute themselves. The
mediator listens to each party and assists them in communicating with each
other in an effective and nondestructive manner.
Family law and divorce mediation may not be appropriate for all parties or to
resolve all issues, but it can be very effective when it is used to help parties
work creatively with the mediator to resolve their issues. In some cases,
divorce mediation will resolve all issues, while in other cases; the parties may
resolve some issues through mediation and other issues at trial. However,
even with very contentious parties, the process often works, and the parties
are surprised to find themselves on common ground.
If you are already in mediation, you may wish to consider additional support
for added power and experience. A family law attorney, trained in mediation
and advising you independently may add to your peace of mind, improve your
negotiation, and help speed up the negotiation process so long as that will be
to your advantage. The Law Offices of Rosemary O. Nwawka provides
mediation services to divorcing couples who have agreed to accept mediated
resolutions. We offer clients cost-effective, time-saving and healthier options
to a traditional, court-based divorce. As a result we take the entire family
into consideration as we help both sides negotiate mutually beneficial
agreements.
Divorce mediation is less expensive and produces the same legally binding
agreements. The benefits of mediation include: control over the outcome,
savings in time and money, privacy, less stress, no court appearance, no
prolonged legal battles, and less strain on the children. Many families opt for
divorce mediation as an effective way to resolve their legal concerns. Unlike
depending on a judge's verdict, families have control over the agreement
reached in mediation. In mediation, it is you who has the ultimate say. You
can suggest ideas to the mediator and develop or respond to ideas suggested.
Many people who participate in mediation are very satisfied with the results
because they had a chance to create their own solutions. Aside from saving
time and money, mediation produces impressive psychological benefits to the
family. Studies indicate that children recover more quickly from the stress of
a divorce when the parents use mediation. The number of couples who return
to court after mediation is less than one-third of the number who obtained
litigated divorce settlements.
Divorce mediation services are designed to help you resolve a range of family
matters, including:
• Divorce
• Property division
• Spousal maintenance
• Child support
• Child custody and visitation
• Post judgment modification

problems in a divorce through more efficient and effective means than going
