Not every couple in Colorado seeking a divorce wants to "get back" at their ex. Quite the contrary, many couples may want to try to tackle their divorce legal issues in as amicable and cooperative manner as possible, especially if they have children. Most importantly, they want to see that the end result of their divorce is fair to all involved. For these couples, divorce mediation may be an attractive option.
Through mediation, the couple will work with an impartial mediator to voluntarily work out a resolution to their divorce legal issues out-of-court. Mediation is a confidential process. Moreover, it can be less costly -- emotionally and financially -- than traditional litigation. And, it gives couples more control over the outcome of their divorce than they would have if they litigated it. Mediation allows the parties to reach a creative and detailed settlement.
The attorneys at our firm provide mediation services to couples in Colorado seeking this form of alternative dispute resolution. Although a mediator is not allowed to give legal advice, we work to ensure that the negotiations between the spouses seeking our services are constructive. With the help of a mediator, couples can reach a resolution to their divorce issues in a setting that is both structured and confidential, which in turn can reduce conflict between the spouses.
Mediation can be a good way for some couples to settle their divorce, particularly if they want to remain on good terms with their ex or if they are going through an uncontested divorce. To learn more about divorce mediation, readers of this blog may want to review our divorce mediation website.
