Introduction

Mediation involves a neutral third party to facilitate negotiations. Benefits include confidentiality, control over the outcome, and typically lower costs.

Litigation is a court-based process where a judge makes the final decisions. It can be more adversarial, time-consuming, and expensive.


Factors to Consider

  • The level of conflict between parties.

  • The complexity of the issues involved.

  • Your willingness to cooperate and negotiate.


Conclusion

Both mediation and litigation have their advantages and disadvantages. Consult with a family law attorney to determine the best approach for your case.
