In some cases, mediation is an excellent tool to quickly and cost-efficiently resolve areas of disagreement between the parties. Mediation is a non-confrontational environment where a neutral experienced third party (the mediator) guides the parties through a process designed to get to the root of the issue and resolve it constructively.
When parties reach agreement through negotiation or mediation there are several studies which show a greatly increased quality of life after the divorce for both parties. Those who work in these ways to reach agreement are also much more likely to abide by them after the divorce is completed. This contributes further significant cost savings as the parties to not have to return to court to seek modification of orders or to resolve disputes when one party fails to uphold these agreements.
