Understanding Divorce Mediation in CA

Although it is less commonly heard of, the divorce mediation process has been around for a long time. It is growing in popularity among divorcing spouses in California, and several states require that couples attempt resolving their matters in mediation before hearing their case in court.

Divorce mediation is an alternative dispute resolution method that involves spouses meeting with a neutral third-party (the mediator) to reach an agreement on all the issues pertinent to their divorce.

During the mediation appointment, you and your spouse will be helped to agree on several matters, including:

  • How the marital property will be divided
  • Which spouse will pay spousal support and child support
  • The amount and duration of those payments
  • Which parent the children will live with
  • The non-custodial parent’s visitation schedule

If a couple can agree on all the terms of their divorce settlement, their attorneys can prepare a finalized decree to be submitted and approved by the court. Once a judge approves the decree, the divorce is completed.

If a couple cannot agree on one or more issues, the case will be taken to court where the judge will decide for them. The more matters that can be settled during the mediation process, the quicker the court proceedings can go.

What are the Benefits of Divorce Mediation?

Although mediation is not right for everyone, many have found it to be helpful.

Some advantages about the mediation process are that it allows you to:

  • Settle your divorce in less time and with less stress
  • Have more control over your divorce settlement
  • Save money on expensive litigation costs
  • Resolve your divorce in private rather than in a public courtroom
  • Set yourself up for better interaction with your ex-spouse in the future
