A proper roadmap with step by step guide that will walk you through the process
Mediators provide neutral facilitation, fostering open communication and collaboration between parties. While lawyers advocate for their client's individual interests, mediators focus on finding common ground and promoting understanding, often resulting in more amicable resolutions without escalating conflict.
Working with a mediator instead of “lawyering up” can save a couple tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. By working with a mediator, individuals can avoid lengthy court battles and legal fees, making it a more affordable option for resolving disputes and reaching settlements.
Mediation empowers individuals to actively participate in crafting solutions that meet their unique needs and priorities. Instead of relinquishing control to legal proceedings and court decisions, parties can maintain autonomy and have a direct say in shaping the outcome of their dispute, fostering a sense of ownership and satisfaction with the resolution process.

I’m a mother, divorce mediator & coach, and transformational conflict coach.
After going through a traumatic divorce after a 20-year marriage, experiencing intense anxiety & fear, and spending tens of thousands of dollars, I had a revelation: it didn’t have to be that way. Because I didn’t want anyone else to have to experience that, I made it my mission to help people work through conflict in a straightforward, results-oriented way that helps them avoid prohibitively expensive litigation and unnecessary anxiety. I’ve helped hundreds of people avoid the court system and save thousands of dollars in legal fees.
