WHAT IS IT

Understanding Divorce Mediation

Divorce mediation is a collaborative process that lets couples resolve the practical matters of separation outside of court. With a neutral family law mediator guiding the conversation, you and your spouse work through the decisions that matter most, including property division, parenting arrangements, and spousal support, together, at your own pace, without the cost and conflict of litigation.

At Divorce Is Simple, our family law mediators are trained to keep those conversations productive, even when emotions run high. We create the conditions for you to reach a separation agreement you both feel good about.

The result is a path through divorce that is less adversarial, more private, and far more affordable, without sacrificing fairness or your peace of mind.

COST-EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS

Divorce Lawyers

Hiring a divorce lawyer typically involves hourly fees that can range from $200 to $500 per hour—or even more. On top of that, there are court fees, document preparation charges, and other costs that can add up quickly, often exceeding tens of thousands of dollars.

Mediation

Mediation is often a cheaper option when compared to litigation. We charge ONE flat fee that covers everything. This all-inclusive price is less than half of what the average lawyer charges in Ontario. No hidden fees, no surprises—just one straightforward payment for complete peace of mind.

ALL-INCLUSIVE SERVICE

Divorce Lawyers

Legal representation primarily focuses on navigating the legal system, often requiring additional professionals for emotional and practical support, which can increase your expenses.

Mediation

Our mediation service includes everything from initial consultations to the final legally binding agreement in one fee, providing comprehensive support tailored to your needs without extra costs.

EFFICIENCY & TIME SAVINGS

Divorce Lawyers

Legal disputes can take months or years, increasing costs and emotional strain due to court schedules, delays, and adversarial tactics.

Mediation

Our mediation is quick and efficient, with flexible sessions focused on cooperation. Most cases are resolved within a few sessions, allowing you to move forward faster with less stress.
