Choosing family mediation instead of legal action when dissolving your marriage or common law union can save you time, peace of mind, and money. At Affinity Mediators, we understand that divorce may be the most emotionally challenging time in a person’s life. In many cases, it is possible to avoid worsening the challenges of divorce by using professional mediation services to find constructive solutions to your disputes. Courts usually even require you try mediation before you go to court. Contact us for a free consultation to see if mediation is suitable for you.
Our mediators are neutral and impartial professionals who facilitate discussions and negotiations between family members in a fair and unbiased manner. We create a safe and supportive environment where all parties feel comfortable expressing their concerns and working towards resolution.
When children are involved, we prioritize their well-being and best interests throughout the mediation process. Our mediators help parents develop parenting plans and custody arrangements that prioritize the needs of their children and promote positive co-parenting relationships.
Effective communication is key to resolving family conflicts. Our mediators help family members improve communication skills, clarify misunderstandings, and address underlying issues that may be contributing to the conflict. By promoting open and respectful dialogue, we create opportunities for understanding and resolution.
Our goal is to help families resolve conflicts and reach agreements that are fair, equitable, and sustainable. We use a variety of techniques and strategies to facilitate constructive problem-solving, including brainstorming, negotiation, and compromise. Our mediators guide families through the resolution process, helping them find common ground and move forward with confidence.
Preservation of Relationships: Mediation helps families preserve positive relationships and minimize the emotional toll of conflict, allowing them to maintain important connections with each other.
Empowerment: Mediation empowers families to actively participate in the resolution process and make decisions that are in their best interests, rather than leaving the outcome to a judge or arbitrator.
Cost-Effectiveness: Mediation is often more cost-effective than litigation, saving families time and money associated with lengthy court proceedings and legal fees.
