Mediation and other alternative dispute resolution methods are well on their way toward replacing much, if not all, of family law litigation as it now exists. The reasons for this trend are clear.

Mediation offers several distinct advantages over traditional litigation.

Mediation is quite often less expensive for the parties to a divorce since it limits the amount of time that the courts and the lawyers have to spend deciding issues later on.

It also gives you a lot more control and satisfaction concerning issues like property division, spousal support, child custody and visitation than you would have if you simply left it up to the court to decide.

Another benefit of mediation is that it often takes considerably less time for a mediation settlement to be approved than for a traditional case to make its way through the court. This means that your divorce or dissolution of marriage can be finalized faster so that you and your loved ones can move on with your lives.
