Achieving Positive Results Through Divorce Mediation

Most people consider the divorce process to be a highly contentious and hostile process. There are issues of property division, child custody and child support. However, the process doesn’t necessarily have to be combative. Many couples find successful outcomes through the use of divorce mediation.

When most people think of divorce attorneys, they think of confrontational legal battles. However, some attorneys are trained as divorce mediators. This means that rather than a long, drawn out divorce court battle, you will have somebody that can sit down and work with your spouse to hammer out solutions without the need for a trial.

At the Law Offices of Robert B. Fried in Hartford, Connecticut, we work to seek alternative divorce solutions for you and your family. As lawyers and trained divorce mediators, we remain neutral for parties involved in divorce, support or child custody issues. We also do work on collaborative divorces, which are similar to divorce mediation.

Why You May Want Divorce Mediation

One of the benefits of divorce mediation is that parties not represented by attorneys and the formalities of a trial are not allowed into this process. For couples that are able to cooperate, divorce mediation has many other advantages:

• It costs less: because spouses typically work with one divorce mediator, it can cut your attorney fees in half
• It’s faster: because you don't go through the court system, solutions can be wrapped up in less time
• It’s less stressful: on you and your family because you are working together to find solutions, rather than fighting each other
• It’s confidential: rather than fight out in open court, these mediation meetings are private
