Financial issues can often feel overwhelming to divorcing couples. There are so many unknowns and fears. Divorce mediation can help couples tackle the many questions and concerns in a safe, neutral environment. Divorce mediators are trained to facilitate conversations in such a way that both parties’ needs and interest are heard and addressed. Whether it’s completing your sworn financial statements, creating workable budgets, dividing assets or calculating child or spousal support, mediation will assist both parties in determining their own best outcome.
v “This is the best we‘ve ever communicated!”
Remember, there is hope. Divorce mediation can help you lay to rest the past and create a new relationship founded on understanding and goodwill. After experiencing both the pain of divorce and the empowerment of mediation, one party wrote, “I just wanted you to know that we (my ex-husband and I) are still friends.”
