When the decision is made to divorce, the ultimate goal is to find peace of mind and develop a sense of security and hope for the future.  In mediation, the opportunities to reach these goals are increased, as each partner is allowed to explore all potential avenues leading toward reaching a mutual agreement.  The mediator is a trained, neutral professional who will sit with both of you to help you respectfully work through your divorce through negotiation and functional communication.  The private nature of mediation allows the individuals to settle their family matters within the confines of the family and avoid going to battle in the courtroom.
