You may have heard of divorce mediation from a friend TV, or the San Jose community. Divorce mediation has been around for some time, but is gaining speed as the best way to complete a divorce in California.
Divorce mediation is a non-adversarial process in which the divorce mediator – specially trained for this purpose – helps couples find solutions to issues such as asset and debt division, child and spousal support, and child custody without going to court.

During the mediation process, both parties agree to use a third party, the divorce mediator, to resolve their divorce. We step in as that third party for you. Our San Jose mediation services are an alternative to the formal process of divorce court. Divorce mediation is completely legal, inexpensive, and puts you in control of your divorce. For clients seeking a values-driven approach, we also offer guidance in faith based divorce, where compassion and respect are central to the process.
Generally, you need about 3–5 sessions of 2 hours in length. After each session, the mediator will provide you with a working session summary that details what happened in the session and if any agreements were made. The process is structured so you will know what’s happening and won’t get lost.
You can mediate at any time! If you already started a divorce with attorneys, you can always stop and go to mediation to save yourself time and emotional expense. It’s never too late to shift from litigation to mediation or even to consider mediation after beginning a legal separation.
