Marlene and Tom have been separated for over a year. Many things from their shared past have not yet been resolved. In the course of consulting their lawyers, they learn about the costs and duration of legal proceedings. Their conclusion: it is too expensive and too time-consuming.

A friend suggests trying mediation. They want to save money, time and nerves. So they decide to go to the mediator of their choice.

After only a few sessions, the two succeed in developing a better understanding of each other’s needs and wishes with the help of the mediator. Finally, they can again have an open, respectful conversation on equal footing.

A successful mediation needs parties to be open – and mediators who guide the process professionally and calmly. A team like the one from the Mediation Center.
