It must be emphasized that divorce mediation is a non-binding, informal process. In the process, an impartial or neutral third party assists both parties to resolve any lingering disputes. More often than not, business owners have used the process of mediation for a long time to resolve labor disputes. In this process, the two sides can select a neutral third-party mediator, and the divorce mediators will not make decisions on your behalf.
A lot of divorce mediation lawyers bill around $300 per hour. Usually, the divorcing spouses split the cost of the divorce, and the mediators will just charge for all mediation sessions, legal papers preparation, and calls. The divorce mediation sessions will usually last around an hour and a half. There are mediators who offer fixed fees or a flat rate. Still, compared to divorce, this process is way cheaper.
