When you are going through a divorce, it takes every ounce of your time, energy and focus. For many, it is difficult to think past the divorce and how you will interact with your spouse once the divorce is final. If you have kids together, while your marriage may end, a new phase of your relationship will begin — co-parenting. And, for all who have recently been through a divorce, you may also feel a sense of grief, loss and pain. All of these new feelings are a normal part of the process of moving on. Johnson Mediation can help you process all of the feelings and emotions after your marriage ends, and help you find a way to move forward after your divorce.
Many divorcing couples are concerned that mediation may not work. They are fearful that their situation may be too difficult or they may not know a lot about mediation. Although some couples are able to be fairly respectful of one another and work together in divorce mediation, this does not mean you should compare yourself to them. More than most, divorces are not this smooth. Due to things that have happened in the past, complex emotions arise and make it extremely difficult to negotiate with one another. If you are experiencing the troubles of not being able to negotiate it will be very beneficial for the two of you to go to a mediator in order to delegate.
Divorce may end a marriage, but it does not necessarily end a relationship. Parents with children will have to communicate with each other after divorcing, especially if there is a child-support agreement in place. On occasion, child-support agreements require attention or alteration after divorce. If you are in such a situation, you should strongly consider contacting Johnson Mediation for assistance through this process. And, even if the issue you have does not involve changing an agreement, but is instead about a differing interpretation of the child-support agreement, mediation can be an ideal way to resolve misunderstandings and miscommunication.
One of the most common questions asked about divorce is how much it will cost. The first thing to understand is that you have choices when it comes to settling the difficult aspects of your marriage. You can seek resolution through the traditional court system or you can settle your divorce with the help of a divorce mediator. As you are likely already aware, when it comes to divorce, the costs can add up both financially as well as emotionally. Below you will find some basic information about the cost of divorce.
