Which Should You Choose?

Every case is different. In some situations, using the traditional method of litigation to resolve a divorce or another family law dispute makes perfect sense. In others, mediation truly is the best option. The key is understanding the strengths and the weaknesses of all options so you can make an educated decision about what path you want your case to follow.

Contact the Law Offices of Scott David Stewart to discuss your case. Whether you believe your divorce will be contested or uncontested, or you have a different type of family law dispute, we strive to provide guidance that makes sense to you.

Mediation and the Uncontested Divorce

Uncontested divorces are divorces that can be resolved without a courtroom battle. This doesn't mean that there aren't any disputes involved. There may be disputes over child custody, child support, property division and other matters. The key is that you and the opposing party are willing to work together to resolve those disputes on your own instead of turning them over to a judge.

Avoid the Cost of Litigation

Litigating a divorce or another family law case may be necessary if there is simply no way that the two sides involved will be able to reach an amicable outcome by working together. Unfortunately, litigation is not cheap. You will have to hire a lawyer and you will have to pay family court fees. There is also the emotional cost, as well as the time commitment to consider. Attempting to mediate your case first may help you avoid all of these costs.
