Divorce is never easy and every case is unique. It is important to keep in mind, though, that divorce does not have to be adversarial. If the parties and their attorneys are willing to collaborate and work together to find solutions, they will have additional options that will save them time and money.
Cost-effectiveness
One of the most significant advantages of mediation is its cost, compared to what you would pay if you litigate your case in court. Traditional litigation, which includes attorney fees, court costs and other expenses, often takes much longer and requires additional parties and procedures, which is why it costs more.
Control of the Outcome
If the parties agree to mediate the case, they will have much more control over the outcome of the case because they are the ones making the decisions. This is empowering and positive for everyone involved, given that the alternative is having someone else, like a judge, decide for you.
Preserving Relationships
Mediation aims to preserve relationships between the parties. While it is understandable that, in a divorce, the parties may not necessarily be the best of friends, mediation is a non-adversarial form of conflict resolution. Litigation is an adversarial and the parties can–and often do– fight it out in court.
Faster Resolution
Mediation is much faster than litigation, which can take years or even months to finalize. By opting for this process, you can move forward sooner and reduce the stress that comes with divorce.
Mediation presents numerous benefits for couples who are dealing with divorce in Indiana. From cost savings to having more control over the outcome of your divorce, mediation is a powerful tool that can transform a potentially adversarial process into a collaborative experience.
