Divorces in the past:
• Made generalized assumptions about what was best for the children.
• Assumed lawyers were needed to ‘fight’ for you.
• Cost a lot of money and damaged relationships.
• Emphasized fault and compensation.


The Modern Divorce:
• Mediation can better assist partners to financially plan for separate homes and financial independence.
• Children need to maintain a healthy relationship with both parents.
• Some needs change over time – plans should leave room to consider changes in the future.
• The best plans are made in collaboration with other professionals as required to ensure sound decisions are being made.
• Ongoing exposure to conflict is the biggest predictor of how children will cope with your divorce.

What we believe @ Modern Divorce
• Parents and partners are much better equipped to make decisions about their family and financial future than a judge.
• Money should stay in the family and be used to gain financial stability for the future, not be spent on litigation and fighting.
• Even the most difficult decisions can be negotiated with the assistance of an experienced and knowledgeable mediator.
• Children need to be allowed to continue the business of being children, without ever being stuck in the middle of their parents’ conflict.
