Mediation provides a faster, more affordable, and less adversarial path to reaching a separation agreement.

Choosing family mediation over traditional litigation offers several significant advantages for separating couples. The process empowers both parties to maintain control over important decisions while working with a neutral third-party mediator.

• Cost-effective solution – Mediation typically costs 60-70% less than going to court
• Faster resolution – Most cases reach agreement within 3-4 sessions versus months or years of litigation
• Preserves relationships – Especially important when children are involved
• Confidential process – Unlike court proceedings which become public record
• Flexible arrangements – Allows for creative solutions tailored to your family’s unique needs

The collaborative nature of mediation helps reduce stress and emotional trauma while creating lasting agreements that both parties are more likely to honour long-term.
