The Benefits of Mediation

Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process in which a neutral third-party mediator helps parties resolve disputes outside of court. It allows parties to agree on their own terms with the assistance of the mediator. Mediation can be a less stressful and more cost-effective alternative to traditional litigation, allowing parties to retain control over the outcome of their case. Maryland state law encourages alternative dispute resolution methods in divorce and custody cases, such as mediation. Maryland law requires parties to attend mediation before a custody case can go to trial.

Mediation is a process in which a neutral, third-party professional, called a mediator, facilitates a conversation between you and your spouse to resolve conflicts and make crucial decisions. Mediation is often a preferred alternative to traditional divorce proceedings, as it allows for more flexibility and customization in the outcome and can be a more civil and collaborative process. If you are considering divorce mediation in Maryland, working with a mediator who is also an experienced divorce mediation attorney is helpful. This can ensure that the mediator can identify potential solutions and foresee potential problem areas, as well as provide guidance on what the court may or may not be able to do in your case. During mediation, you and your spouse will have the opportunity to discuss and address the issues that are most important to you, such as child custody, property division, and financial support. It is critical to keep an open mind and be willing to consider options that may initially seem uncomfortable or require further research. Mediation sessions are typically conducted with both spouses present and individually in a private and confidential setting. It is a layering process that may involve multiple conversations and the possibility of trying out temporary arrangements before coming to a final agreement. Overall, divorce mediation in Maryland allows for a customized and mutually beneficial resolution to conflicts and can be a less stressful and more cost-effective alternative to traditional divorce proceedings. If you are considering divorce and want to explore the options available through mediation, it is essential to work with a qualified mediator who can guide you through the process.
