Reaching agreements through mediation has the benefits of being far less expensive than extensive litigation, and usually results in fewer hard feelings between the parties. Mediation is not a substitute for legal services, but it can significantly reduce the cost of reaching an agreement.
In mediation, the disputing parties work with a neutral third party, the mediator, to resolve their disputes. Ellen has been mediating cases for over 20 years. Her role as a mediator is to facilitate the resolution of the parties’ disputes by supervising the exchange of information and the bargaining process. The mediator assists with relaying information between the parties, framing and defining their issues, and assisting them in coming to an agreement.
A successful mediation can help you resolve your case faster, more effectively, and without as much stress as the regular method of litigation, which is confrontational and may involve long battles with tons of attorney fees. The battles also result in a ‘winner’ and ‘loser’ instead of both sides coming away feeling like they got something they wanted.
Mediation is a method to resolve a dispute between the parties. Mediation is a negotiation facilitated by a neutral third party. Mediation can be initiated by the parties or may be compelled by legislation, the courts, or contractual terms (your marital settlement agreement).

The primary goal of family mediation is to reach an agreement which can be presented to the court that will be fair to and protect the rights of both sides. Final agreements involve responsibilities for both sides which must be adhered to and thus, it is important that these are fully understood.
The mediation process is generally considered more efficient, less expensive, and less stress than formal litigation.
