Mediation - Coordination Vs. Litigation
Divorce mediation and Parent Coordination have become increasingly well-known and widely accepted in New Jersey. Mediation & Coordination mean different
things to different people. We know from years of research that when you compare couples who have problem solved their divorce with couples who go the traditional adversarial divorce, the mediation couples are more likely to be satisfied with the process and the results. Parent Coordination is much newer in New Jersey,
however other states have provided ample literature to suggest the
benefits are similar to that of Divorce Mediation.
It is likely to take less time, you are probably spending less money, and are less inclined to need to go back to court later. The main advantage is that it keeps
you and your spouse in the decision making position of your own divorce.
That can make all the difference in your recovering from your divorce and moving on with your life. Mediation and Coordination can allow the two of you to get
through your divorce with less stress and conflict than you may
experience in a traditional adversarial courtroom setting.
