Frequently Asked Questions
What are the advantages of mediation?
Because mediation does not require court intervention, it is typically a quicker and more affordable process compared to traditional divorce litigation.
Is mediation right for your case?
Mediation is a great fit for couples who are able to communicate and cooperate. Mediation is typical in uncontested divorces, but Hightower Reff Law does offer other divorce options. Our Nebraska attorneys are certified in collaborative divorce, a similar type of divorce for amicable spouses. Mediation is not recommended for cases involving domestic violence or other abusive situations.
What happens if no agreement is possible in mediated divorces?
If agreement cannot be made, you and your spouse will proceed with traditional divorce litigation.
