The Many Advantages of Divorce Mediation in Ontario CA

The Many Advantages of Divorce Mediation in Ontario CA

Divorce isn’t an easy thing. However, what makes it ten times harder is when your spouse doesn’t seem to be in agreeance with you. Even if you went into the divorce on fairly good terms, it doesn’t always mean they’re going to see eye to eye with you when court time rolls around.

Attorney Torrence L. Howell is aware of how messy the process of divorce can be, which is why he often recommends divorce mediation to his clients who have complicated cases.

Divorce mediation can be beneficial for many divorcing couples in the following ways:

Mediation Doesn’t Take as Long

A traditional divorce through trial can take several months or even years. Divorce mediation, on the other hand, tends to be a much quicker process as it doesn’t involve judges or lawyers. Rather, the divorcing spouses meet with a mediator. And at any time the spouses decide they are no longer ready to divorce, they can suspend the mediation process, making it highly flexible – more so than divorce court.

It Can Result in Fewer Costs

A faster process and the lack of a need for judges and lawyers can most definitely mean that there are less costs involved. Legal costs associated with divorce court, on the other hand, can be outrageous and cause both spouses to be in debt for years to come – but not with divorce mediation.

Expect a Better Outcome

Sometimes it is necessary for a judge and a lawyer to be involved in a divorce. However, sometimes a mediator can help guide a couple to a better, more favorable outcome that benefits them both. With the mediator acting as a neutral third party, heated disagreements can be cooled off before they build, helping both parties think with better headspace and make decisions based on logic and reasoning rather than hurt emotions.

There Will Be Less Stress for You Overall

There’s really no such thing as a stress-free divorce, even when both parties are in agreeance with the divorce. However, when the process of divorce is relatively quick, low in cost, and has a favorable outcome, you bet that there will be less stress, anxiety, and hurt feelings involved. Your mental and emotional health are precious, and you deserve to have the most “comfortable” divorce process possible.

My ex-wife hired an attorney which prompted me to do so for our divorce. Torrence Howell was highly recommended from a friend of mine who used Torrence’s services for a divorce just like mine. The results came out much better than he ever thought it would. With all things being equal I felt Torrence would
