Benefits of Mediation

 ·  The parties control the process and the pace of the mediation     sessions. The parties, with the mediator's assistance, create an     atmosphere that is positive and supportive to everyone involved.

 ·  The parties communicate directly with each other and work     together to create a resolution that meets their needs.

 ·  Through the mediation process the parties build a foundation of     trust and open communication.

 ·  As with Collaborative Practice, if you have children together, you     have a lifetime of communicating with each other. Working     together through mediation process can help you make the     transition in your relationship and effectively communicate in the     future. This benefits your children as well as each other.
