More on how it works

Peoria, Arizona Divorce Mediation

The Aurit Center For Divorce Mediation in Peoria, Arizona helps spouses through a simplified, low stress divorce process. We handle your divorce from filing to finalization so that you never see the inside of a courtroom. We are Arizona leaders in divorce mediation services and specialize in divorce with children.

In mediation, spouses avoid a harmful court battle. This protects the financial and emotional well-being of the entire family. Research shows that mediation results in far better outcomes for your children. Parents are able to stay in control of their own parenting time schedules and create a personalized parenting plan. This better meets their needs and considers the best interests of their children.

Our services include divorce mediation, child custody mediation, child support modifications, post-divorce modifications, parenting mediation, legal separation mediation, and document preparation.

Mediation is healthier for children.

An Arizona divorce war or custody battle is unnecessary and can cause serious damage to children’s psychological well-being. High-conflict and continued parental fighting during and after divorce are the primary reasons children experience emotional harm. Parents can ensure better outcomes for their children by using divorce mediation to lower conflict and reach agreements without court.

Your personalized Parenting Plan will take the place of a judge’s orders. A A parenting will include a comprehensive parenting schedule, agreements on decision-making issues, communication agreements and decisions regarding financial obligations, such as child support.

Agreements in mediation can be as flexible or specific as parents need. Divorce mediation also lays the groundwork healthier for a co-parenting relationship after divorce.

Divorce without court is all we do.

Spouses never need to ever enter a courtroom to become divorced in Arizona. Even when spouses disagree on terms and may not communicate well, litigation is likely not necessary. Litigation in court often causes severe financial burdens and emotional turmoil.

At The Aurit Center For Divorce Mediation, a neutral mediator will help both spouses reach agreement on every issue of their divorce, confidentially, without aggression and without court. Everyone’s interests and needs are considered and met in mediation. Terms of divorce are tailored to allow both spouses the security they need with the settlement. Satisfaction with the divorce mediation outcomes is very high due to this personalization. In the end, your mediator drafts and files your Divorce Decree, rather than a Judge.

Divorcing without court reduces stress and prevents continued fighting. Less conflict results in less time for divorce to conclude. This results in far lower overall cost for divorce.

Convenient Peoria, Arizona location

The Aurit Center For Divorce Mediation in Peoria, Arizona is conveniently located on 83rd Avenue near Bell Road and the Loop 101 at the Peoria Sports Complex.

Confidential divorce

Arizona law protects divorce mediation confidentiality. All verbal and written communications during mediation and any draft agreements remain strictly private and confidential. This helps private family matters to stay off of the public record. It makes sense that so many celebrities and high profile spouses enter divorce mediation. However, privacy is an advantage to all spouses who go through divorce, their children, and their entire family.

Your own personalized divorce terms.

When spouses are advised by their attorneys to stop communicating with one another, massive communication breakdowns over simple divorce issues cause escalation of conflict and high legal fees. Many feel as though they have “lost control” over their divorce to a runaway system.

In mediation, spouses retain control over their own customized terms. With the help of their impartial mediator they are able to discuss their proposed agreements. Creative solutions are reached that reflect their unique circumstances. Spouses determine their own future and their children’s future, rather than a Judge ordering it for them.

Many people do not agree on issues at the beginning of mediation. But your expert divorce mediator will help you find common ground and reach mutually beneficial agreements.

Our low flat fees reduce the cost of divorce.

The cost of divorce litigation in Arizona is enormous and avoidable. High legal fees hurt families at the worst possible time—when families need stability most. In the Peoria, Arizona area, and throughout the West Valley, attorneys initial attorney retainers average between $5,000 – $15,000 to start a case. Many moderately contested cases that do not go on to trial average $15,000 – $18,000 per spouse. Contested cases that go to trial can cost over $100,000 in total legal fees.

The Aurit Center believes in honest, fair and affordable fees for your divorce. Predictable fees are important to divorcing spouses in order to provide financial stability and more certainly during a time of transition and challenges.

Our client-friendly flat fees for divorce mediation give spouses the financial help they need. When spouses are under less financial stress they feel able to reach better agreements. Divorce Mediation at The Aurit Center costs 85 – 95% less than typical litigation cost for divorce in Arizona. We assess your circumstances and give your flat fee for divorce mediation at your free one-hour consultation.

HEAR FROM OUR CLIENTS

THE ADVANTAGES OF MEDIATION

Mediation is healthier for you

Litigation can be an all-consuming, confrontational process that increases stress and diminishes your and your family’s physical and mental health and overall well-being.

Our mediators guide you through our creative, focused, and thoughtful problem-solving approach to reach all agreements. Since mediation lowers conflict, it reduces stress for you and your family.

Costs much less

Mediation is cost-effective: 80% to 90% less expensive than litigation. Arizona attorneys typically charge an initial retainer of $5,000 to $15,000, and an average court case can cost more than $40,000.

At the Aurit Center, we never charge a retainer or bill by the hour. We provide affordable, all-inclusive, flat fees that keep you in control of your costs.

More about our pricing

Finishes faster

Most of our clients complete their mediation process within 2 to 4 months. That’s much sooner than the average litigated divorce, which can take anywhere from 10 months to 2 years—or more.

Instead of a long, emotionally- and financially-draining litigated divorce process, our efficient, focused approach creates relief for you and your family.

Results in better post-agreement compliance

Couples who complete their process in divorce mediation are more likely to comply with the terms of their divorce. You maintain control as we help you customize your agreement to meet your family’s specific needs through a more respectful divorce process. That results in more respect for the final terms, compared to a judge-ordered divorce where parents lose all control of the outcome.

Maintains your privacy and confidentiality

What happens in mediation stays in mediation, which can be a comforting thought when personal details are being revealed. Arizona law guarantees that anything said during mediation is private and confidential. In litigation, anything said or written is a matter of public record which anyone can access.

Keeps you in control of your terms

In mediation, you stay in control of your future. Your mediator guides you in reaching an agreement by objectively listening and incorporating as much as possible of what is important to each of you.

Courts lack the time and resources to consider or understand your needs thoughtfully. Litigating means giving control to a judge who will make all decisions based on the limited information they receive from attorneys.

And it’s better for your children

Legal battles of any magnitude harm children. Child specialists agree that continued fighting during and after divorce can severely damage child development and cause long-term emotional and psychological harm.

Mediation puts your kids first by protecting their physical and mental health and overall well-being. Our mediators, who specialize in the needs of children during divorce, set you up for the healthiest co-parenting relationship possible.

Protects your child’s emotional health

Research shows that children whose parents cooperate during and after divorce are more resilient and maintain normal long-term emotional well-being. Continued fighting between their parents during and after the divorce is a top reason for children’s severe long-term emotional problems around their parents’ divorce.

Produces healthier co-parenting relationships

By reducing conflict and creating a plan, mediation helps parents adjust to co-parenting after divorce. The better the parents adjust, the better the kids adjust.

Enables better relationships with children

Research shows that parents who resolve their divorce through mediation have more meaningful long-term relationships with their children.
