Costa Mesa divorce mediation FAQs
Do I have to live in Costa Mesa to mediate my divorce with you?
No. We serve couples throughout Orange County and all of California. Because mediation happens entirely by secure video, it doesn't matter whether you live in Mesa Verde, Eastside Costa Mesa, near South Coast Plaza, or have already moved elsewhere, you can complete the whole process from wherever you are.
Will my Costa Mesa divorce be filed with the Orange County court?
Yes. We prepare your paperwork and file it electronically with the Orange County Superior Court on your behalf, then guide you through to a final judgment. You never have to appear before a judge or travel to the courthouse.
How much does divorce mediation cost in Costa Mesa?
We charge a single flat fee, agreed before you begin, rather than billing by the hour the way litigation does. You'll know your full cost upfront, with no surprises.
How long does a divorce take in Costa Mesa?
California imposes a mandatory six-month waiting period from the date of service before any divorce can be finalized. Most of the work is finished well before then, and mediation avoids the long delays of a contested court calendar.
Do we each need our own lawyer?
Mediation is designed so you don't each hire attorneys to battle it out. Your attorney-mediator stays neutral and guides you both. You're always free to have an outside attorney review the final agreement if you'd like.
