Abordagem & Filosofia de Mediação

Mediation, more than anything else, encourages you to separate your immediate emotions and demands from real long term interests and needs. It teaches you to use time tested negotiation techniques and strategies to reach divorce settlements that will meet your needs. Finally, when you mediate your divorce, you keep control of the entire process. Most people find that to be not only rewarding, but empowering. They also find that the negotiation and communication skills they learn and use in mediation carry over into the rest of their lives. Many of my mediation clients have told me had better relationships with their ex-spouses because they learned to communicate and negotiation effectively in ways they couldn't before their divorce. Having worked as both a divorce lawyer and a mediator for many years, I know mediation is a better way for most people to get divorced. In the last 25 years, mediation has revolutionized the way people settle disputes in business, industry, labor, neighborhoods and even international relations. It is time for a revolution in the way people get divorced.
