What are the elements of a compassionate, common sense divorce?

Financial -Realistic look at financial situation; planning; developing better financial awareness, discipline, knowledge and skills; life planning for earning income
Social - How to best deal with children, extended family and friends
Client Centered - It's your process. It's private. You have the opportunity to look deeply at how things are and how they can be made better; how you can become better and heal.
Multidisciplinary - You have access to a team of specialists as needed, including your own consulting attorneys, child specialists and divorce coaches.
Interest Based - Looking deeply to discover real interests underlying initial demands, creating more options to satisfy needs
Joint problem solving - Moving beyond blame to work together to brainstorm options to solve problems
Drafting Documents and Filing Case - This is a consensual process done outside of court but includes filing of the entire case at the end. There are no court dates or demands. It's in your hands.
Efficient in time and money
Your best chance at an amicable post divorce relationship
Sound better than a traditional divorce?
In a traditional divorce you are not encouraged to work together to come to understandings about yourself and your spouse that will enhance your future relationship. Even if there will be no future relationship, what about the anger and bitterness you hold? Wouldn't it be better to resolve that in your mind, body and spirit - for your own good? Mediation can help your family through this very emotional and difficult process.
