Mediation FAQs
-
I`ve heard about mediation, but I`ve also heard that the less sophisticated spouse is more likely to be taken advantage of?
True, there may be an imbalance of power. But a good mediator will take this into account and even reject cases if there is a likelihood of fraud or unfair dealing. -
I might consider mediation, but will I have to waive my ability to use a lawyer?
Absolutely not! Good mediators encourage clients to have independent counsel review divorce agreements. -
Well, this all sounds reasonable, but my spouse would never agree to mediation. Can I force him?
Absolutely not! Mediation is 100% voluntary.
