Mediation Process

Although there isn’t a formal mediation process, mediation typically involves the following:

• The mediator will introduce themselves and make the opening comments
• Each side is given the chance to discuss their side of the dispute
• The mediator will start a discussion either individually or with both parties present
• After discussing the issues, the mediator will bring both parties together to negotiate a solution
• If the negotiation is successful, the mediator will put an agreement in writing and have each party sign
• If the negotiation was not successful, the mediator will summarize the negotiations and advise the parties on how they should proceed

Benefits of Mediation vs. Arbitration

As opposed to arbitrating a divorce proceeding, mediation allows both sides to have their voice heard and to establish a middle ground for their wishes during a divorce.

• Mediation has numerous benefits, including:
• Lower cost
• Cutting length of proceedings
• Amicable resolutions for child custody
• Quickly resolving spousal support and child support
• Dividing property in a manner that both parties can agree on

Most mediation processes are efficient and couples find that they are overall more pleased with their divorce proceedings when they choose to work together to resolve issues. To get started, contact Boyamian Law right away.

How Long Does Mediation Take?

A mediation session generally lasts 2-3 hours. The amount of sessions you will need to have depends on how complicated your case is and how willing you and your spouse are to compromise. Some cases can be resolved with one session while other cases can take up to a month. Even then, mediation is still generally much faster than traditional litigation.
