As with most things in life, we tend to lean towards the "cheapest" option we can find, and in some cases, divorce proceedings are no different. While there is rarely any cheap divorce mediaton in Riverside that doesn't raise a red flag and make you wonder is this true (often times its not), there are affordable ways to obtain a divorce through mediation that may look "cheap" compared to going the "lawyer" route. You don't want to go through the process then submit the paperwork to the court and get turned away because it wasn't sufficient, at A Fair Way Mediation we are meticulous with the paperwork after the mediation services have been complete so you simply have to submit the paperwork and move on with your lives!

As mentioned above, a divorce will always be cheap comapared to each of you hiring your own divorce lawyers. When you decide to go the "litigation" route this can easily cost each of you $20,000+ dollars in lawyer fees, and in today's modern lawyer fee structure this will be much highere.
Whereas with a Riverside divorce mediator, the fees on average come in around $3500 - $6000, depending on the complexity of the case and your ability to communicate properly and come to a mutually beneficial agreement.
A Fair Way Mediation has become one of Riverside's trusted divorce mediators because we have been doing this for over 4 decades. We have seen it all, the good and the bad, but the goal is to always keep an open mind and understand where each individual is coming from. While many mediators will take the same approach over and over again, we understand divorces are complex and each side deserves to be heard. No matter how long you've been married, there is some history there and nuances that need to be discussed.
Realist Divorce
When you go the mediation route, you will both be provided the "likelihood" of the outcome if you decide to go to court and goes to trial. The mediator DOES NOT take sides and will not give legal advice, but give you a fair idea of the options that could happen should you proceed to the legal system.
Safe
Contrary to litigation, mediation does not take an adversarial process. An effective mediator will ensure balance of power between the parties involved and maintain communication and a respectul environment. Each side is given the opportunity to state their position and offer ideas and proposals without facing threats or interruption.
