Mediation can effectively resolve family law disputes like divorce, child custody, and property division. It's generally quicker, less costly, and can preserve relationships. However, it may not be suitable if you're unwilling to compromise or if one party is acting in bad faith. Consult a legal professional for tailored advice.

The role of a family law mediator is to help individuals and families resolve disputes related to family law matters such as divorce, child custody, and property division. A mediator is a neutral third party who facilitates communication between the parties and helps them identify their needs and interests.

Mediation and arbitration are alternative dispute resolution methods with key differences. Mediation is a voluntary, non-binding process where a neutral mediator helps parties find a mutually acceptable resolution. Arbitration involves a neutral arbitrator who hears both sides and makes a binding, enforceable decision. Mediation is generally less formal, while arbitration resembles a trial setting. Both usually take place in a boardroom.
