What is Contested Divorce Mediation?
Contested divorce mediation is a process where parties to a divorce agree to use a neutral third-party mediator to facilitate communication and negotiation during the divorce process. This approach can help couples avoid the lengthy and costly legal proceedings associated with contested divorces.
How Contested Divorce Mediation Works
During a mediated divorce, the mediator will help the parties to communicate effectively and find common ground. They may also facilitate discussions on parenting issues, financial matters, and other relevant topics.
Types of Contested Divorce Mediation
- Uncontested divorce mediation: In this approach, the parties agree to a mediated settlement without going to court.
- Contested divorce mediation: When the parties disagree on certain aspects of their divorce, they may choose to go to court instead.
