If you’re considering a separation or you’re in the early stages of negotiating a divorce, the entire legal process can become drawn out if both parties cannot come to an agreement. Conflict could arise when it comes to dividing assets or in terms of childcare responsibilities, where lengthy negotiations can quickly become stressful and costly.
This is where a family mediator can step in. These professionals work to aid positive communication between two divorcing parties, helping both sides to feel heard whilst coming to a fair agreement. Working with a mediator can also allow couples to keep disagreements out of the courts, meaning that legal fees can be kept to a minimum.
Read on to find out more about how family mediation could work to simplify your difficult divorce proceedings.
Timely Resolutions
Divorce is hard enough without the legal process dragging on indefinitely. This kind of prolonged instability is not only costly - it can also cause high stress levels and confusion for any children that are caught in the cross fire. With the help and support of a mediator, you can ensure that you reach a timely resolution that works for you, without proceedings continuing for an unnecessarily long period of time.
Tailored Support
There’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to divorce. That’s why it’s important to come to an agreement that suits your particular situation. A mediator will work to find a personalised resolution that appeals to everyone involved, whether this is in terms of dividing assets or coming up with a long term parenting plan.
Managing Stress
A divorce or separation is one of the most stressful things that a person can go through, especially if they’re separating from a long term partner. The adversarial nature of court proceedings will only worsen the emotional side of this experience, where working with a mediator can help to keep relations civil and cooperative, reducing the need for extreme stress.
Long Term Cooperation
There’s no point in coming to an agreement if neither party is happy with the outcome, as this will only cause further problems and considerable costs in the future. Importantly, a mediator works to achieve an outcome that will stay in place for the long term, so that both parties can move on with their lives in a productive manner.
