This presentation addressed the benefits of mediation versus litigation in family law cases. The conventional litigation process is predicated on an adversarial “win-lose” model in which it is assumed that the parties must fight against each other for their “rights.” Even when the parties believe their intentions are reasonable, their lawyers’ job in the litigation process is to fight for their respective clients’ interests, which often results in the parties’ focusing on doing as much damage to the other as possible. Their children are put in the middle and unintentionally made victims of their parents’ battle. Evidence is clear that conflict between parents has a long-term damaging impact on children who are dealing with their parents' divorce.
