Frequently Asked Questions |
| |
|
What
are some of the benefits of a mediated divorce? |
|
A mediated divorce costs less, takes less time
and is less painful. Over 97 percent of divorces
are settled by an agreement between the couple
anyway. So it just makes more sense than the
old-fashioned "your lawyer can deal with my
lawyer" kind of divorce. |
| |
|
How
is mediation different? |
|
Mediation eliminates the aggressive bargaining
and legal games. You acknowledge your
disappointment but recognize the need for
ongoing cooperation. The neutral mediator helps
you focus on the future - the issues that need
to be resolved. |
| |
|
How
does the mediator help the couple emotionally? |
|
If one party is a stronger negotiator, mediation
helps balance the power. When couples express
hurt, fear or anger, mediators talk about the
needs behind the feelings. They reframe the
issue to help the couple focus on a mutually
acceptable solution. Mediation supports the
healing process. |
| |
|
Does
mediation work for everyone? |
|
No, but it works for most couples and not just
for couples who already know how to cooperate.
Mediators show people how to work together in
spite of their anger. It does require that each
party be able to speak freely and frankly about
their needs. |
| |
|
Who
are the mediators? |
|
Mediators are attorneys and other professionals
trained in Divorce Mediation. |
| |
|
What
other resources do we provide? |
|
Often times there is a need for the services of
other professionals such as accountants,
financial planners, business appraisers, pension
experts, career coaches, therapists, etc.
Mediators can offer referrals as needed. |
| |
|
What
happens after the couple reaches an agreement? |
|
Because Ms. Pollack is a mediator/attorney, she
will prepare the legal agreement that
incorporates all the issues covered in
mediation. The agreement will be the basis for
the separation and divorce. |
| |
|
How
long does mediation take and how much does it
cost? |
|
A mediated divorce usually takes between 4 and
15 hours. Fees are based on an hourly basis and
the final legal agreement is a separate charge.
You will find that mediation costs a fraction of
what it would cost to hire two attorneys. |
