Mediation resolves issues faster than court battles providing a better way to sort out disagreements than long drawn-out court battles enabling you to get on with the rest of your life as quickly as possible.
Mediation is empowering giving you more control over the outcome. In court a judge will make the decisions. With mediation, you and the other party make the decisions collaboratively.
Mediation is less stressful, it avoids the adversarial environment of court which means less conflict between you and your partner. If you have children it is also less upsetting for them. It can help find ways for everyone involved to get on better in the future. Co-operating parents contributes towards continued important family relationships.
Communication between you is improved through mediation which helps to sort out your future faster.
Agreements can be reviewed and changed in the future if you both agree e.g. if your situation changes, and as your children get older and have different needs.
Discussions between the parties and the mediator are without prejudice and not disclosed outside, notwithstanding any safeguarding concerns.
Your attendance at mediation is always voluntary which is key to its effectiveness.
