Mediated divorces now more common

(Please Note: this article is specific to AZ and some legal information may not pertain to your state)

Saving time and money appears to be the trend these days, and it isn’t any different when getting divorced.

From 2009 to 2010, Out of Court Solutions, a mediation firm, has seen a 55 percent increase in the number of divorces being settled by its mediators. It not only can save money, but it also helps a couple keep their divorce settlement private.

It is also not an option just being exercised by the general public in Arizona. Even celebrities, such as Tiger Woods and his now ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, went with a mediated settlement out of court, taking advantage of the option’s relatively private legal proceedings.

In a mediated divorce settlement, a couple decide to have a mediator set up a session in which issues of their divorce are resolved out of court.
