Why Mediation Works Divorce is about feelings.
Mediation is about feelings.
It makes you feel good to be able to plead your case. In a courtroom or at a deposition, parties are not really allowed to say what they want. It saves you time, money and grief. Mediation can be very empowering - it can give a spouse a voice that won't be heard in court. In mediation, people's feelings count more than facts.
