Mediation is a form of Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR) and is a voluntary and confidential out-of-court process. The mediator acts as a neutral facilitator to help the couple reach an agreement on custody, parenting time, support, distribution of assets and debts and/or any other issues that need to be resolved.
Collaborative divorce is a new and unique team-based form of Alternate Dispute Resolution. The process is designed to provide additional support to the parties to help them transition their family through divorce and into the future. In the Collaborative process, each party is represented by a collaboratively trained attorney.
Arbitration is a form of Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR). In arbitration, the parties select a neutral person (usually a lawyer or retired judge) to decide their issues. The parties appear with their attorneys and the arbitrator takes testimony and hears evidence, but the proceedings will be more informal and will not take place in a court.
In the traditional process, a divorce starts when one party files a Complaint for Divorce. The Complaint is served on the opposing party, who has 35 days to file an Answer or Counterclaim. The court then schedules a Case Management Conference for the attorneys and the parties and the Judge enters an Order setting deadlines for the exchange of documents.
