Private And Joint Sessions
After the introduction stage, several private and joint sessions are scheduled to
take place, whereby the mediator will assist the divorcing couples to evaluate
issues touching on their divorce case. During these sessions, the mediator
must promote a peaceful and conducive environment where all parties can
freely express their concerns, ideas, and needs.
Private sessions are meant to offer each party in the divorce case a chance to
discuss sensitive emotional elements, issues of domestic abuse and other
sensitive issues of the couple’s divorce case. The mediator must keep the
information disclosed by the couple during these sessions completely
confidential.
