Mediation is simply a process that uses a neutral third party to keep the conversations between you moving forward.
In mediation, a non-biased professional has the privilege of working with and for both of you and doesn’t take sides. This does not mean you’ll be attending meetings together throughout the process, but you’ll be working at the same pace to reach a consensus.
As of January 2026, the courts in Alberta expect those facing divorce to use mediation or another dispute resolution service before litigation. The courts are no longer the default, and neither is litigation.
Mediation led by a lawyer is not the same as mediation led by a mediator. With Calgary Divorce Solutions, your lawyer’s involvement is kept to a minimum compared with the traditional system, which saves you time and money.

Mediating your agreement means you’ll be heard, you’ll have some control over the outcome and you’ll be part of building your agreement. No surprises, no winners or losers, just two people who have clarity about moving forward. Together we work through:
The result is a mutually agreed report that becomes the content of your legal separation agreement.
How long should the separation process take? That’s really up to the two of you.
Mediation is for people who want to move forward rather than prove who did what to whom. It’s for those who would rather keep their net worth between them than exhaust it in lengthy legal battles, and who want to stay good parents to the children between them.
If it’s done, it’s done, but part ways with your dignity intact. It took both of you to get to the end of your relationship, so there are no winners, and it’s not easy for either of you.
A separation agreement covers the details: what makes up your marital property, who keeps what, what needs to be sold or refinanced, how the children will be cared for, and what financial support is needed and for how long. It’s the most important document you’ll enter into, because it puts healthy boundaries between you and your soon-to-be ex-spouse.
A divorce simply ends your marriage. It does nothing to divide your marital property. In Alberta:
The cost of a divorce is lower than a separation agreement, and the process is much simpler.
Parenting plans and child support are crucial parts of the process. A detailed parenting plan makes sure your children stay connected to both parents. Your children will remember how their parents’ divorce affected them, so choose to end things without the drama and unnecessary chaos.
You’ll always be treated with respect, and never as just another file.

Not necessarily. Mediation doesn’t mean you’ll attend every meeting together, but you’ll both work at the same pace toward a consensus.
That’s really up to the two of you. When you both accept that the laws protect you equally, stay reasonable, and get educated before negotiating, the process moves much faster.
Mediation is for people who want to move forward rather than prove who did what to whom, who would rather keep their net worth than spend it on legal battles, and who want to stay good parents. It isn’t suited to anyone using the children to bargain an outcome.
A separation agreement covers the details: property, who keeps what, the children, and support. A divorce simply ends your marriage and does nothing to divide your property. Most couples need the separation agreement first.
My experience dealing with Linda as a mediator was great. Linda Listened to both sides, played no favorites and addressed any concerns/issues right away, she provided information and resources when needed.
Linda always followed up and truly wanted the best for both of us and our children, she truly cares about her clients and is sensitive to situations, I would strongly recommend Linda as a Mediator.
