How to Get an Uncontested Divorce with Mediation

Divorces don’t always have to be messy and time-consuming. Sometimes, two people in a marriage can mutually agree that the relationship isn’t working for them anymore. Even in a marriage, it’s possible to realize that you’ve grown apart, or that you want different things. When this happens, sometimes, the best thing that everyone can do is go their separate ways. In some situations, the couples considering a divorce may have even discussed the issues that commonly arise in a divorce proceeding. In these situations, those involved generally want to avoid as much exhausting litigation and discussion as possible. For couples who are ready to cut ties and go their separate ways, divorce mediation may be the ideal solution.

However, in circumstances wherein the parties are capable of working together, divorce mediators can help the couple work through the issues that need to be decided in the hope of coming to a more mutually acceptable solution. Often, divorce mediation is much less expensive and faster than a typical divorce with a divorce attorney. It can be much faster too.

Uncontested Divorces and Mediation
