The Benefits of Mediation

The evidence to date suggests that mediated settlement in marital disputes simply lasts longer and works better than adjudicated settlements because the parties who helped craft the settlement have a greater stake in making them work.

The Massachusetts Special Commission on Probate and Family Court Procedures

Mark Berson Mediation provides all-inclusive services and coordination for every aspect of your separation and divorce.

Through mediation you get the support of a professional in a private and confidential setting allowing you to make decisions without court intervention.

Mediation is the most cost-effective way to obtain a divorce.
By choosing mediation you will:

• Have one mediator who serves both of you fairly
• Achieve settlement in less time and with less stress than with a litigated divorce.
• Avoid the adversarial costs of subpoenas, depositions and interrogatories
• Attend a one-time court hearing rather than costly hearings
• Resolve future issues in your settlement, such as responsibility for college costs, thereby avoiding a return to court

The mediator makes sure you are fully informed about your legal and financial options. MBM has extensive divorce experience so you benefit from precise knowledge of the law and of court proceedings. Providing the legal document directly for you saves considerable expense and effort.
