In October 2010, New York State became a No Fault Divorce state. This means married couples wishing to divorce no longer need to prove that one of the partners is at fault and you and your spouse can file for an uncontested divorce immediately and simply state that there has been an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. This is good news. But it is also imperative that once you and your spouse have decided to separate and ultimately divorce that you both work toward composing a written agreement making the necessary decisions about the rest of your life especially if  you have children.



MANY ISSUES NEED TO BE DISCUSSED:


child custody, child support, visitation, the house, alimony, bank account, pensions the list goes on and on. Whether the couple has children or not.

In some cases it may make sense to live under a separation agreement for a while before filing for divorce, others may want to come to an agreement , sign a stipulation of settlement and file for divorce right away which ever route the couple decides to take it is important that you put your differences aside so that these vital decisions be made fairly and together.


There are many benefits to an uncontested divorce. YOU WILL:


Save time, save money, save the headache, stress, fighting, blame and anxiety often associated with contested divorce litigation. But most importantly if you have children you will keep them from being torn through the same emotional stress.

Divorce does not have to be a financial storm or bring financial ruin to a family. In this tough economy isn’t your money and life savings better spent on what  you had originally planned? And not on costly litigation divided between your lawyers? In Mediation everybody wins because the parties determine the outcome not the strangers in a court room. Going through a divorce is difficult and stressful enough without making a strategic game of it and isn’t it better to be in control of your own life and the lives your children?
The mediators at Just Mediation Inc are here to help your family restructure and work through this difficult time. Life to too short to remain unhappy so
Just Mediate it!




COMMUNICATION IS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR CHILDREN

It is important for you and your spouse to be able to communicate in matters regarding your children following separating and divorcing . You will have to continue to have a relationship where it concerns your children after divorce. Mediation will help you in maintaining that relationship through the divorce process and provide you with the necessary skills needed to continue to communicate on your own.

 

 

WHAT HAPPENS IF I HAVE TO ENFORCE OR MODIFY MY DIVORCE JUDGMENT?


Can We Return to Mediation?


The answer is YES

Sometimes an ex-spouse does not comply with a divorce judgment. Sometimes circumstances change and the agreement you reached is no longer equitable. The situation could involve issues such as child custody and visitation that must be addressed.  If that is the case, you can try to mediate a resolution to your disagreement. Just Mediation Inc can help find the right resolution for you.

 


 

 
WHAT IS THE COST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LITIGATED DIVORCE AND A MEDIATED DIVORCE?
 
 
 
A Litigated Divorce can cost a couple anywhere from $20,000.00 to $50,000.00  EACH for a simple case settled out of Court. Cases that end up going to Trial can cost upwards of $100,000.00. A Litigated Divorce can also go on for MANY years especially if the case goes to Court.  Many people are realizing these facts and turning to Mediation BEFORE hiring an attorney that will charge a minimum retainer of $10,000.00 to get started. If your situation fits the criteria for Mediation then your HARD EARNED MONEY would be better spent on your future and your children if you have them.
 
 
 
A Mediated Divorce will typically cost a couple anywhere from $2,000.00 to $5,000.00 COMBINED. It depends on the number of mediation sessions the couple needs to work out the agreement and that depends on the issues to be agreed upon. For example, the finances, the children the assets etc.  A Mediated Divorce typically takes 3 to 8 sessions and can usually be worked out in as little as a few weeks to a few months. Mediation is "pay as you go" and is less expensive and much quicker than Litigation.
