- it’s much quicker than going to court. *
- It’s usually considerably cheaper than the traditional court-based approach to sorting legal problems that arise out of divorce and family breakdown *
- by focusing on looking for solutions rather than fighting endless battles, it’s a much less stressful and better way at solving your legal problems.
- you keep control – timescale and issues are not set by the court but by you and your partner. And any settlement will be one agreed and created by you – not imposed by a judge.
