What is Mediation?

Mediation is a voluntary procedure in which both parties agree to the mediation process. During mediation, the mediator works as a neutral third party and is trained to be entirely unbiased and impartial.

Mediation facilitates dialogue and enables parties to reach an agreement that wouldn't be attainable via litigation. 

During Mediation, the parties are in control of the result and choices; this is a more constructive approach to divorce and family issues, since you must maintain a good connection with the other side.

Mediation is an empowering process in which both parties regain control in order to reach a realistic and fair agreement that is adequate and acceptable to both sides.

This is accomplished in a safe and less anxious and fearful setting.
