Divorce Mediation is increasingly being used by couples who are seeking divorce because it takes less time and is less expensive than traditional court-based divorce proceedings.

In Minnesota, which is a no-fault divorce state, the definition of ‘adultery’ is extremely outdated. The definition still holds that adultery occurs only when a married woman is unfaithful to her husband. This definition does not take into consideration the possibility of a man being unfaithful to his wife, nor of the new legal status of same-sex marriage. AMS Mediation, however, can help you navigate the specific intricacies of Minnesota law—and can help you and your ex-spouse work through many other emotional and logistical aspects of the divorce process including child support, parenting time and division of property. Our team has experience working with couples who are seeking divorce after infidelity and our impartial input can help find common ground, even in the most difficult circumstances.
When divorce is sought because one member of the couple has engaged in infidelity, the member of the couple who has been hurt by their spouse’s infidelity is likely to experience a wide range of difficult emotions. That person is likely to feel betrayed by their cheating partner, which could lead to anger, sadness, depression, and other more subtle, but no less complicated emotions. AMS Mediation has the training and personal experience to help you gain greater understanding of those complex emotional responses. On a personal, psychological level, gaining this greater insight can prepare you to heal so that you can move on with your life sooner than later.

But the immediate assistance that can be provided by AMS Mediation can also give you the strength you need in order to proceed through the divorce with a sense of clarity. No divorce is easy, but when the decision is made mutually by the couple, stress is likely to be less than when infidelity has surprised one member of the couple. In such instances, it is very important to have an advocate in your corner, and there can be no better advocate than AMS Mediation.
