For some residents of Old Westbury, the only way to come to terms in a divorce will be to go through the process of litigation.

A mediation procedure doesn't just provide more freedom than the standard divorce - it also offers support for people who would prefer to keep their relationship as healthy as possible after a separation, for the sake of children. Some people going through a mediation procedure can start by drafting a separation agreement that will allow them to consider their lives apart, even if they end up staying together. This separation agreement can also come in handy if a full divorce does go through, as it will allow the couple to apply for a no-contest divorce. Mediation can sometimes make getting your divorce and moving on with your life a faster, less stressful process.
