Eidelman & Associates When to Get Divorce Mediation | Page 5

A quick, easy divorce is not the only reason for divorce mediation, however. There are also times when a divorce does not involve much of an estate to split up. For instance, if two people have been married for ten years, are employed in equal paying jobs, rent, and take transit to and from work, divorce mediation is a good alternative. Here the people make about the same amount of money, so there is no need for alimony. They rent an apartment and they take transit, so there is not any major property to split up. There are not any kids involved, so child visitation is not an issue. In the end, the most they have to split up might be some furniture and personal effects. In this case, divorce mediation is a good option.
