Many couples who are getting a divorce believe that the only way to accomplish this is to fight out everything through the court system. However, this isn’t necessary to do. It’s much easier, faster, and less expensive to use mediation services to come to many agreements on various aspects of the divorce. Often, it has to do with who will get what after the divorce is over and how to come to those agreements.
Divorce mediation is a great way to work together so that each of you gets an equitable share of what is communally owned. Imagine going to court to fight over who gets your kitchen decor. Couples have done this, and it often costs more than what is being fought over. It’s important to enter into mediation with a willingness to work together and to make sure that both parties get some of the things they want.
Keeping the larger assets like the house and the cars is a big factor in the divorce process, and mediation services can help you to make these decisions. If you go into the process knowing that you won’t get everything you want, you have a good chance of using mediation to make things easier.
