Mediation vs Divorce Differences: Scott Levin In His Own Words

“When it comes to resolving disputes, you have options. Litigation and mediation are two common paths, but the experiences couldn’t be more different.

Think of litigation as swimming across a turbulent river. The current is strong, the water is freezing, and there are sharks circling. Every stroke is a battle against the elements, and while you might eventually reach the other side, the journey is grueling, risky, and leaves little room for control. Litigation can feel just like that—adversarial, stressful, and uncertain.

Now picture mediation as a sturdy bridge that stretches just above that same river. Instead of struggling in the water, you’re guided safely across. The journey is more collaborative and focused on building a solution that works for everyone. Mediation allows you to avoid the exhausting fight while still reaching the same resolution, but with less risk, less cost, and often a better outcome for both sides.

Both paths lead to the same destination—a resolution—but the way you get there makes all the difference. Mediation offers a calmer, more constructive approach, while litigation dives headfirst into the chaos. The choice is yours: Do you want to swim with sharks or walk across the bridge?”
