What to Expect During a Divorce Mediation

Are you looking for Utah divorce information or trying to figure out the initial steps of how to divorce? The separation or divorce process in Utah can be complicated and lengthy, but divorce mediation can speed up the process saving you money and headaches.

I have mediated divorce cases where each of the parties have hired attorneys, litigated their case for months, or sometimes years, and have been able to help them resolve all of their issues in a matter of hours.

As your divorce mediator, I will work with you to schedule mediation sessions that are convenient and will allow you to make the best use of your time. A divorce mediation session usually lasts for two (2) hours but can last longer if that is what will serve you best.

Divorce Mediation Offers a Better Solution

By helping people form their own agreements and giving them the opportunity to know exactly what the outcome will be, divorce mediation offers a better solution: a solution reached without a judge or jury telling them what they must do. A skilled divorce mediator can help empower the parties to reach a mutually satisfactory agreement by listening to the parties, leaving nothing to chance from the decision making authority of a stranger.

A Divorce Mediator Lets You Set The Rules

You may not get to tell your story in court, but merely answer the questions posed by the attorneys. Consequently, a Judge makes the decision that you have no part in formulating, but will affect your family, money or life. A divorce mediator allows you more control over the final terms of your divorce.

Avoid Litigation Costs Through Mediation

In short, mediation can help parties reach a timely, cost–effective, and definitive agreement without the uncertainty of a trial. Divorce mediation can also be very effective before or after litigation is instituted.
