Advantages of having an express divorce through mediation

When a marriage comes to the deduction that they must divorce, due to how complicated that situation becomes, they just want the process to be as easy and short as possible, for this reason express divorce is created, which arises with the aim of shorten the time and simplify the procedures that normally take place in a divorce.

The types of divorce that exist are:

• Administrative divorce: It is processed before a civil judge who will draw up an application for divorce, first covering some requirements.
• Uncontested divorce: It is carried out when there are children under 18 years of age and an agreement for the distribution of assets is not reached.
• Contested divorce: This divorce may happen due to different causes such as violence, suffering from a contagious disease, prison sentence, among others.
• Express Divorce: The normal time of divorce is reduced, but issues such as custody or alimony are not solved, in case there are children.

If in the course of the divorce they can not reach an agreement by themselves, then it will be necessary for a third person to mediate between them to help them find a common point of agreement, from this need arises mediation in the divorce.

The requirements for divorcing depend on the situation of the marriage, for example:

• Whether the couple has children or not.
• If one of them left home.

Consequences related to patrimonial and economic issues:

• Liquidation of the economic regime.
• Payment of alimony.
• Distribution of assets.
• Custody and child support of the children in common.

In order to establish an agreement, it is usually resorted in the courts, where a Judge is the one who decides about the issues raised and dictates a sentence based on the evidence and documentation that is provided.

To avoid this verdict of the Judge there is another way that is mediation, a third person in a completely objective and impartial way you listens to both parties to gather all the relevant information and when analyzing it this person offers help to reach an agreement for the benefit of both parties.

The mediator’s job is to help the couple reach agreements that they can not achieve on their own.
