Divorce mediation in MA with Ben Stich will help you:
Develop a divorce agreement
Couples work with the mediation to develop a separation agreement that addresses your goals and concerns. Negotiating divorce through mediation empowers you to make your own decisions about what is in the best interest of your children; your finances; and your futures. Divorce mediation avoids leaving these important decisions to expensive attorneys to battle hoping they make decisions that will be in your best interest.
Ensure privacy
Mediation is a confidential process. The mediator can never be called upon to assist either spouse in future court actions.
Give you complete control over the decision-making process.
One of the core principles of mediation is self-determination. This means that all decisions are ultimately yours to make, not an attorney and not a judge.
Save time and money
Divorce mediation allows you to pay for one professional, rather than hiring two separate attorneys, each of whom probably charge higher rates than a mediator. The divorce process moves more quickly than litigation because mediation provides a process that is designed to help you come to resolution rather than contest every issue through an attorney.
Enhance child well-being
Mediation helps improve communication between the divorcing parents and results in better child-centered decisions.
