Your Trusted Conflict Intermediary
We are a mediation firm dedicated to helping people resolve their thorniest disputes.
If you have a conflict with a person or business that seems intractable, and would like to avoid the time and expense of going to court, we need to talk.
Why Mediation?
Lower Cost
Mediation is much less expensive than pursuing an outcome using the court system.
Privacy
Mediation is private, whereas going to court is public. Everything discussed within the mediation meeting is confidential. The only thing that can be shared is the outcome.
Time
Mediation can be done quickly, at a time determined by the participants. That is not the case when using the court system.
Outcome
Mediation allows all participants to "have their say" and to achieve a mutually agreed upon resolution, whereas if you go to court, a judge and/or jury determine the outcome.
Process
Mediation puts you in the driver's seat. The mediator is a facilitator, a conductor, if you will. The disputants -- the parties in disagreement -- determine the outcome.
Relationship
Using mediation to resolve a dispute can preserve the participants’ relationship.
Win-Win
When the optimal outcome of mediation is achieved — that the participants arrive at an agreed upon resolution — the result is a win for everyone.

*** A note regarding divorce: Even when both spouses are on good terms and have plans to part ways amicably, meetings involving the dispersal of assets and the living arrangements of children can quickly become acrimonious. This is a great time to plan the use of mediation in advance, to make sure the post-divorce relationship remains friendly and civil.
If you are considering mediation, let’s talk.
Free Consultation
The initial consultation usually lasts between 10 - 20 minutes. We can discuss your situation and determine whether or not mediation will be suitable for you.
Once we receive your message, we typically text to set up a time to talk.
