It is a more positive personal experience for the divorcing individuals than the adversarial divorce process. Mediation is a cooperative exercise in responsible problem solving that calls upon the best attributes of each partner to build an agreement rather than engage in needless litigation. Divorce Mediation results in a lower rate of relitigation. Mediated settlements are more comprehensive and cooperative in nature, producing a much higher rate of compliance by both parties, and a lower rate of expensive relitigation.
