Divorce can be difficult on many levels, from emotional to financial. When a couple first starts the divorce process, they may not realize that there are some ways to make the process easier. One of the best ways to make the divorce process not so difficult is through hiring a divorce mediator in Greeley Colorado. Unlike in court, where a judge makes all of the decisions relating to a divorce, a divorce mediator in Greeley Colorado can assist the couple in coming up with a settlement for some aspects of their divorce, making it quicker and easier, while also making divorce less devastating financially.
A divorce mediator does not make decisions about a divorce case. Instead, the mediator helps a divorcing couple come up with their own settlement through guiding them through negotiations. In a matter of just hours or days, a couple can decide on many aspects of their divorce, from property dissolution to child custody and visitation. When couples decide these issues themselves, outside the court room, they can avoid weeks or months of arguing between their lawyers in front of the judge. The result is that both spouses save money in legal fees relating to their divorce.
There are also strong emotional reasons for a divorcing couple to try mediation. It is very likely if everything is decided by a judge, one or both spouses may feel that their needs weren’t met, and their voices were not heard in the courtroom. Besides simply making one or both spouses bitter about the outcome of their case, it could mean that the spouses will be less likely to be agreeable to negotiations that may come up later on, such as the case with child custody issues.
