Divorce in California:
Ending a marriage is a major decision, especially when the emotional and financial stakes are high. California is considered a “no-fault” state. This means that you do not have to prove a reason other than “irreconcilable differences” to file for divorce or legal separation. Either you or your spouse must have lived in: (i) California for the last six months (ii) the county where you plan to file the divorce for the last three months.

Methods of ADR:
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) refers to a process which resolves key issues related to division of property, spousal support, and child custody and support without undergoing any litigation. ADR is the best way to quickly finish any kind of divorce case since it does not require trail. Some of the effective ADR methods are mediation, collaborative divorce and arbitration.

(I) Mediation: During the mediation process, both of the spouses will work with a neutral mediator outside of the court process to reach resolution on all issues in your divorce case. These mediation sessions would last for a minimum of 2 hours. Some of the advantages of undergoing mediation are Confidential, not a matter of public record, Encourages compromise, Easier on children and Reduces expenses.

(II) Collaborative Divorce: Collaborative Divorce is a non-adversarial, out-of-court legal process which requires all parties to work toward an agreement that is in everyone’s best interests.

(III) Arbitration: In arbitration, you and your spouse agree to hire a private judge, called an arbitrator, to make the decisions. The arbitrator’s final ruling cannot be appealed. Arbitration has some of the same advantages over mediation which are speed, efficiency, privacy, cost-effectiveness and informality.
