Overview:
Divorce mediation is a professional, confidential process where an accredited mediator helps couples and families resolve conflicts related to separation or divorce. In South Africa, mediation is often encouraged as a way to reach agreements on matters such as:
- Parenting arrangements and child care
- Division of assets and finances
- Spousal responsibilities and support
Unlike going to court, mediation provides a safe, neutral environment where both parties can communicate openly, understand each other’s perspectives, and reach mutually acceptable solutions. The process is designed to reduce stress, save time, and protect relationships—especially when children are involved.
With mediation, you have the opportunity to make informed decisions, maintain dignity, and move forward with solutions that respect the needs of everyone involved.
