Welcome
As
a practicing attorney for over 30 years, I have seen first hand that
going to court is often not a very good way to resolve disputes. The
emotional trauma added to the high cost and the long months it usually
takes to bring the case to trial often means that there is no real winner,
no matter what the verdict.
Mediation is a process that can settle disputes quickly at a fraction
of the cost of going to court. It is an informal process that is much
less stressful, and the case can often be settled in a few weeks. An
agreement can be tailored to meet the specific needs of the parties.
Best of all, you remain in control of the terms of the settlement rather
than putting your fate in the hands of a judge or jury who does not
understand the situation nearly as well as you do.
I have seen mediation work in hundreds of cases. Whether it is divorce,
child custody, business disputes, personal injury, landlord and tenant
matters, or employment disputes, mediation can bring a swift and fair
resolution.
I invite you to explore this Website further and to contact me to
learn how mediation or collaborative law might be effective in your
situation.
