In New Hampshire, settlement offers made in the mediation of a divorce case are, except in very rare circumstances, confidential. The mediator will generally urge participants to feel free to be creative during mediation in trying to reach an out-of-court settlement of their divorce matter without fear that the terms proposed might be admissible at court if the case does not resolve in full at mediation. Such freedom to make creative attempts toward resolution often turns the tide in a difficult negotiation, and can bring the case to the much-hoped-for close just when agreement seemed completely out of range. If you would like to know more about the benefits of mediation and other ways to complete the divorce process with minimal court involvement and minimal litigation costs, experienced and attentive attorneys at the McGrath Law Firm are ready to help.
