The stress of a divorce does not necessarily stop when the divorce papers are signed. Very often, when couples share children the divorce is simply the beginning of a new phase of the relationship. For this reason, AMS Mediation offers post-divorce counseling services which provides support to couples who have already completed the divorce process. For more information call 952-252-1492 today.
There is no denying that divorce is hard on a couple, and on an entire family. Your emotions can range from intense sadness to anger, from guilt to remorse and many individuals feel confusion, uncertainty, shock, fear and many have trouble letting go. Adjusting to the idea that your marriage did not succeed can take some time and it is normal to feel a huge sense of loss during the process. AMS Mediation can help you navigate
One of the most stressful aspects of a divorce can be the enormous financial strain that it can put on both parties. Separating your life from your spouse can mean big financial changes related to where you will live, health insurance, and a decrease to your overall standard of living. A long court battle can also add to the financial costs associated with divorce, with litigation costing couples $15,000 on average
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is defined as a means of settling a dispute without litigation, or a court battle. ADR is an alternative to litigation and can save individuals time and money and can reduce the burden on the very busy court system. Alternative dispute resolution can come in several forms including mediation, early neutral evaluation, negotiation, and arbitration. Minnesota courts actually strongly encourage individuals and their attorneys to solve issues via alternative dispute resolution before proceeding with a court proceeding. AMS Mediation specializes in offering those in the Minnesota area a thorough and effective option for mediation
Divorce is extremely stressful in many ways – emotionally, physically and financially. The emotional and physical impact are natural parts of grieving the loss of your marriage and, to an extent, must run its course. However, there are things that you can do to minimize the negative financial impact of a divorce. AMS Mediation offers comprehensive mediation services and focuses on helping you and your family navigate divorce while conserving financial resources.
