Unlikely this will work with any serious contested asset. This is just a legal family law ploy to bill for 3 days. Any asset or home is going to be negotiated. Even if one of the parties is very wealth and can afford to provide a home for a spouse; your lawyer is going to make a settlement offer you sign or re-negotiate. Being locked in a room is so uncomfortable and does not mean optimal settlement. Just means someone compromises under a time constraint. Might not work.
From what I’ve seen, the lawyers tell you all these great things are gonna happen when the other party doesn’t fulfill their part and then in the end, nothing really matters and the lawyers make all the money. Lawyers are snakes

What happens if my husband or myself
Don’t show up for first session of mediation
Then it sounds like the case will be contested. You can’t have mediation unless both parties are willing to participate.
