The Mediation Process

What can you expect from the mediation process?

Unlike traditional court processes, mediation assists couples in developing resolution options so they can make their own decisions. What you experience in mediation is gathering all relevant financial information and education about related tax and financial implications. Your mediator will help you to find common ground that can be used as a foundation for making the decisions that are important to you.

When you use SVA Mediation Services you can expect:

• Confidentiality – something that is not present in open court
• A potentially faster and less expensive process than offered through traditional legal channels
• A more flexible resolution than is normally attained in a court of law - where judges and juries often decide the outcome
