The benefits of
family separation mediation
The benefits of family mediation (family dispute resolution) are many but in general terms mediation
has the following benefits:
 |
Disputes can be resolved more
quickly than through legal and other methods; |
|
Mediation is confidential and is
not a public record; |
|
Mediation can be arranged quickly,
on short notice and therefore be of great assistance when issues become overwhelming; |
|
Mediation is a process guided by
the mediator but the outcomes are controlled and created by the parties themselves; |
|
Family Mediation leads to more
flexible and creative outcomes |
|
Agreements reached at family
mediation have a greater chance of standing the test of time as the agreements are the product of both
parties input; |
|
Family Mediation lets people be
heard - concerns are aired and discussed constructively; |
|
Family Mediation is cheaper than
litigation, negotiation through lawyers and even collaborative processes. |
|
Litigation
destroys family relationships
|
 Litigation on the other hand has only
one advantage -
You will give given a decision by a third party (judge) guided only by
legal principles and legislation. Do you really want an outcome of your private family
issues decided by someone who does not know you or your family? If not mediation may be the
process you need.
