Wondering if there’s a faster, more cost-effective, and confidential alternative to court for resolving disputes? Mediation and arbitration offer flexibility, privacy, and greater control over the process, with the added certainty of resolution. In this session, we will explore the key advantages of mediation and arbitration over traditional litigation—and why these collaborative methods often lead to better outcomes for families.

From emotional well-being to financial savings, and from minimizing conflict to preparing for co-parenting success, you'll learn how these alternatives can transform one of life’s most stressful transitions into a more manageable, respectful process.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

• Understand the differences between mediation, arbitration, and court litigation in family law.

• Recognize the emotional and financial costs associated with litigation.

• Identify how mediation and arbitration promote respectful communication and minimize conflict.

• Assess the benefits for children and family relationships long-term.

• Explore real-life examples where mediation/arbitration led to faster, more positive outcomes.

• Learn how to find qualified mediators and arbitrators and prepare for the process.
