Is mediation right for me?

Mediation is a fast, effective and economic method of dispute resolution but it isn’t for everyone. You should consider Mediation if:

• You are looking for an affordable divorce
• If you do not want to draw out your divorce proceedings over a long period
• If you want to end your marriage amicably
• If you are considering joint parenting
• If you want to make your divorce easier on your children
• If you want more control over your decisions

However, mediation may not be the right fit for you if the following is true.

• You are expecting a long drawn custody battle
• If either of you refuses to show flexibility on your position
• If either of you is taking a position based on “principle only”
• In some cases of intimate partner violence where the power balance can’t be rectified through other means
