WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF MEDIATION?
Spouse Relationships
- Mediation helps preserve a good relationship with your spouse and
reducing the tension for the sake of the children.
- Couples who mediate their divorce typically are better able to communicate and cooperate and to keep tensions down for the sake of the children.
- The mediation experience builds a base for future cooperation between the parties and teaches you how to resolve issues in a cooperative manner.
- Typically the parties are more satisfied by having arrived at their own "solutions" to the problems as opposed to having a judge make the decisions.
- The parties' children typically benefit from such a collaborative approach.
Less Costly
- Typically mediation is significantly less expensive than a litigated divorce. A typical mediated divorce costs about $3,000.
- If the case goes to court, the cost may be three times as high -- or more.
- Mediation is less expensive than paying two lawyers to fight for each spouse.
Less Time Consuming
- Mediated divorce cases typically take considerably less time than a litigated divorce.
Greater Overall Satisfaction
- In Mediation the parties are assisted by a mediator to reach an agreement developed by the spouses themselves, not one imposed by a judge or the court system.
- Typically those spouses who mediate their own settlement are much more satisfied with their divorce.
- In addition, children of mediated divorces may adjust better to the divorce of their parents than children of litigated divorces.

20 years of experience in Rhode Island Family Court
In Rhode Island, state law provides guidelines for divorce, however, all to often a Rhode Island Family Court judge will decide the terms of divorce, will determine your financial future, and dictate your relationship with your children, in other words — when you will see your children, whether you are able to stay in your home, and what support payments you will receive or be ordered to pay. It is our objective at the Rhode Island Divorce Mediation Organization to derail that type of thinking, to draw on that experience in representing your interests. If you have questions about our organization or our experience, please call (401) 285-1122 or e-mail our office to arrange a free consultation.
