Divorce Mediation in Washington

If you and your spouse are unable to reach an agreement on key issues in your divorce—such as property division, debts, spousal maintenance (alimony), or, if children are involved, child support and parenting plans—mediation is a valuable tool that most Washington lawyers and judges encourage or require before any courtroom battles occur.

Why Mediation?

Mediation provides a structured environment where a neutral third party (the mediator) helps facilitate communication between you and your spouse. This can be especially beneficial when:

  • Communication Breakdown: Couples may struggle to effectively communicate their needs and concerns.
  • Emotional Strain: Divorce can be emotionally taxing, and mediation offers a calmer setting to negotiate terms.
  • Cost Efficiency: Mediation is typically less expensive than litigation, saving you thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees.
  • Control Over Outcome: Unlike a judge making decisions for you, mediation allows both parties to have a say in the final agreements.

Benefits of Mediation

  • Faster Resolution: Many couples can reach an agreement in just one or a few mediation sessions, significantly speeding up the divorce process.
  • Privacy: Mediation sessions are private, whereas court proceedings are public record.
  • Flexibility: Mediation schedules can be more flexible, allowing sessions to be conducted virtually or at convenient times for both parties.
  • Reduced Conflict: A skilled mediator can help reduce tensions and foster a cooperative atmosphere, making it easier to reach amicable agreements.
