Wesley Chapel Mediation Lawyers
Mediation is a highly effective method to resolve legal disputes with the assistance of a neutral, third party. This is a process used to settle the issues of divorce and family law, to reach legal agreements outside of court, and avoid prolonged litigation. If you are about to proceed with a divorce, a Wesley Chapel divorce mediation service offers a good alternative. Pre-suit mediation differs from a collaborative divorce in that there are only three people involved including both spouses and the mediator, who is completely neutral. Mediation is a good option for situations that are less complicated both legally and financially. As in a collaborative divorce, mediation requires both negotiation and compromise, but is a little more flexible as far as the protocol of the meetings and procedures. Attorney Danielle Glenn of Glenn Law Group is a certified Family Law Mediator in Wesley Chapel and will help you determine if this is a suitable method for your case.

Efficiency
Mediation can be a more cost-effective and efficient way to reach a resolution. If parties can resolve their issues in a mediation session, both parties generally save money and preserve more of the assets they are litigating for in the first place. Parties not only save in costs, but in time too! A contested case can last for many months, even years. A mediated agreement can be drafted and finalized fairly quickly.
Mediation Advantages
Generally, offers made during mediation sessions are kept confidential. If both parties believe their offers will not be used against them in the future, they may be willing to be more flexible and creative with their discussions in an attempt to reach a resolution. This often leads to agreements that both parties can feel satisfied with, and one that would not otherwise be ordered by a judge. It is important for both parties to enter mediation with a certain amount of openness to reach a resolution.
Mediation is also non-binding on the parties. This too, can encourage parties to operate without fearing the outcome of mediation and increases the possibility of reaching a settlement. Our attorneys will explain all of the details involved in negotiating and reaching a settlement.

If parties can voluntarily enter into an agreement and reach a full financial settlement without needing a judge to divide assets or order support, it has been shown that there is generally less need for enforcement measures to be taken afterwards. Parties that have a personal stake in an agreement are more likely to be co-operative.
When parents reach an agreement regarding timesharing and other important matters regarding the children, this is usually a better solution for the children than the one that is ordered by a judge. Additionally, there is often less conflict between the parties as co-parents in the future.
