Going through Divorce Mediation

For many Utah couples who are facing divorce, mediation is extremely beneficial. Not only do couples usually spend less on their divorce while being more in control of how their property or assets are divided, mediation often allows couples to come to an agreement without major conflict.

What makes mediation work so well in many situations is that couples have the opportunity to speak open and freely about their issues with a neutral third party. Mediators are there to listen while asking insightful questions regarding a party’s situation. In fact, many people who are going through a divorce just need someone who is willing to listen to them while making them feel more confident. Mediators can also provide the validation that a person may be looking for, especially in cases where one of the parties may feel like their feelings or concerns do not matter.

Because mediation takes place with both spouses present, there are a couple of things that each of them should know. First, the mediator is not taking sides with either spouse, even though they will listen to the other person’s concerns. Second, the mediator may ask each party to clarify their thoughts so that a better line of communication can be drawn between spouses. Finally, if both spouses can listen to each other, there is a much better chance that the mediation will work.

While some Utah couples are able to agree to an uncontested divorce, others may not be able to come to an agreement regarding one or more issues even after mediation. If divorce mediation still does not work, a family law attorney might help the spouse negotiate a comprehensive settlement agreement that will contain provisions relating to any unresolved matters including property division, alimony and, where applicable, child support and custody.

Navigating a divorce is never easy, and I am so grateful to have had the support of attorney Nathaniel Garrabrandt and paralegal Carren Leavitt. From start to finish, they were responsive, professional, and compassionate. I really appreciated the weekly check-in Every phone call and email was answered promptly. There were moments when I needed immediate help with custody issues and protection—Nathaniel handled those situations with calm expertise and gave me the reassurance I needed during such a stressful and uncertain time.

Divorce can feel overwhelming, but having strong legal guidance made all the difference. Nathaniel and Carren provided not only the legal knowledge but also the steady support that helped me feel protected and confident moving forward. I couldn’t recommend Briwn Family Law more highly to anyone needing a reliable and caring legal team!

This has honestly been a first-class experience! I've gotten to work with many attorneys throughout my life and none have been as attentive as, Clay Randle has been.
Daniel and Carren were great to work with. They took time to help me understand the process and get through a difficult time. When I had questions they were quick to respond and really listened to my concerns.
