The Three Most-Frequently Asked Questions About Mediation

1. What Is Mediation?
2. Why Mediate Rather Than Litigate A Divorce Case?
3. In What Kind of Cases Will Divorce Mediation Not Work?

1. What Is Mediation?

In New Jersey divorce cases, mediation is a confidential process in which a trained mediation professional helps the divorcing parties work out a mutually acceptable solution to their disagreements. David Salvaggio has received special training in Divorce Mediation.

2. Why Mediate Rather Than Litigate A Divorce Case?

Not all divorce cases require litigation. Unlike in litigation, each mediating party is able to communicate directly through Mr. Salvaggio who will listen to the issues and try to guide the parties to a solution. Unlike non-attorney mediators, they can also bring new perspectives to the proceeding, because of their comprehensive knowledge of the law.

3. In What Kind of Cases Will Divorce Mediation Not Work?

Mediation will not work if one of the spouses is unwilling to present all financial documentation, has a goal of financially harming the other person, is unable to state what he/she needs and negotiate in the presence of the other spouse, cannot make decisions or is unwilling to take responsibility for his/her decisions.
