When choosing a divorce mediator, look for someone who is experienced in dealing with family law issues and has specialized mediation training. It's also helpful to look for someone who you feel comfortable communicating with and will be patient during the process.
Mediation can help make the divorce process smoother and less stressful by enabling you to have an open dialogue with your spouse about important decisions that need to be made. You'll each get a chance to express yourselves in a safe, neutral environment, allowing for more productive communication so you can come up with mutually agreeable solutions together.
