Major benefits of Divorce Without Going to Court
A divorce without court allows you to choose from low conflict, private, and cost controlled processes that are out of the ordinary in most cases. We focus on three court free options, which are shown below.
Collaborative Divorce
Both spouse have hired an attorney and negotiate in a private setting, often with the help of neutral experts. It will only succeed if both individuals agree take part in the proceedings.
Mediation Divorce Costs
When couples choose to go with mediation, one of the major benefit they will achieve is that they will most likely receive the same outcome, but a fraction of the price! Whereas a litigated divorce can come around $25,000 in fees for each indivdual, with a mediator the cases average around $3,500 - $7,000 depending on the complexity of the case. There will be upfront estimates and you will not receive a surprising bill at the completion that you weren't expecting.
Peaceful Divorce Process
As many people are aware, feelings can get very strong when going through a divorce. Anger and frustration can also play a role in the communication of the divorce, and when the litigation route is taken, the feelings can get worse as lawyers are talking to each other and not you both directly. Mediation only works if you both are able to communicate in a peaceful way to get to the bottom of the issues to come to an agreement.
Less Stress
Divorce is already stressful from the get go, even more so if children are involved. Add in lawyers and arguing and the stress alone is enough to drive you crazy. But this is natural for people to feel stress when going through a divorce, there is a lot to discuss and a new future to prepare for. A Fair Way Mediation is very adept at relieving stress for couples when discussing the issues and making it a very simple process.
