Given our current circumstances, I am thankful to have that experience. Online mediations allow face-to-face interactions that make you feel almost as if you are in the same room, and videoconferencing software has improved dramatically recently, allowing me to tailor the process as I would in person: for example, separating parties when it is helpful to do so, using “waiting rooms” and mute features. More generally, I have been an attorney for over 25 years and a full-time mediator for more than 12 years. I have been very successful in helping couples amicably settle their divorces, avoiding the delays, excessive legal bills, and trauma that result from the traditional adversarial process. My clients protect their children from a court battle between their parents and protect themselves from years of lingering bitterness.So when people ask, Why did you leave a successful litigation practice to begin a mediation firm? the answer is simple: mediation is more fulfilling for me and for my clients. Instead of finding ways to weaken the other side, which was my job as a litigator, now I empower both sides so they can resolve disputes and move forward with their lives. A peaceful divorce is possible. I became an attorney in 1988, graduating from the University of Michigan School of Law. In 1999, I experienced my own divorce and the emotional turmoil it created for my children and for me. That year, I took the training to become a civil mediator. However, I mediated only a few cases, because I became more heavily involved in litigation. Although I was successful, I did not feel fulfilled. Regardless of the number of “wins”, I realized that litigating is really “lose-lose” for everyone because of the costs in time, money, stress, and increased hostility. I stopped litigating to mediate full time. My clients usually leave each session smiling a result I did not see when litigating! Regarding my education, I received my bachelor's degree from the University of Michigan as well as my law degree. I trained as a mediator through the Institute of Continuing Legal Education (ICLE) and the Oakland Mediation Center, and completed the ICLE's family law Certificate program. I have acted as a training coach for the Oakland Mediation Center's mediator training program and provided volunteer mediation services there. I am the Secretary of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Section of the State Bar of Michigan.

I also mediate all of the following: pre-marital agreements (formerly known as prenuptial agreements), marital agreements i.e., conflicts between spouses who have not decided to divorce (formerly known as postnuptial agreements), post-divorce disputes and cohabitation (and co-tenancy) agreements between unmarried partners.

Couples who have children, significant assets or who have been married for a significant period of time think that they have to hire an attorney to figure out how to divide up their assets, determine child or spousal support, or share parental time. That simply is not true. At The Right Divorce Solution, we believe in enhancing communication between all parties and focusing on cooperation vs. building conflict. This is a much healthier approach for everyone involved, including the children. My process does not involve giving you legal advice or guidance. It's my role to help you identify and discuss issues and to explore options and proposals for settlement. Using my services as a neutral with financial expertise allows couples to divorce much more affordably. It is very important that clients understand the long term financial implications of a proposed settlement. This is critical to understanding the effect on both parties, and their financial well being. I also work with individuals who must litigate their divorce by providing support to their legal counsel for purposes of determining child or spousal support, facilitating the preparation of Qualified Domestic Relations Orders and/or determining the value of their separate property (usually pensions and investment accounts).

During her career as an independent financial advisor, Mary developed a passion for educating women, particularly widowed and divorced women, so they could understand their investments and finances and confidently plan for retirement. Mary has since narrowed the scope of her financial practice to helping individuals and couples as a divorce financial planner and mediator. She continues to use her financial expertise to help clients understand the long term financial implications of property division, child support and alimony and how that will integrate with their other sources of income, including Social Security.

Eventually, I wrote many articles which are online (many on this website), and a book for people thinking about having one, The Generous Prenup: How to Support Your Marriage and Avoid the Pitfalls, which is available on Amazon. The book and my articles brought me many new clients all over the United States. At present, I concentrate my practice on prenups and postnups, mediating and consulting. I'm admitted to the bar in Massachusetts, so in Massachusetts I also represent clients negotiating prenups, as well as serving as a mediator and consultant. prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. I have many articles posted on The Huffington Post (now HuffPost) on these topics and others. My articles on prenups have also been published in the Wall Street Journal, MarketWatch, and the New York Times, and I have been interviewed by a number of magazines on prenuptial agreements, including NY Magazine (The Cut). I went to law school at age 38, and now have been practicing for over 35 years. I started out as a tax lawyer in a large downtown firm. I started my own practice in 1991. I currently confine my practice to prenuptial agreements and postnuptial agreements. I have a national practice in this field, performing mediation and consulting. I also represent clients as an attorney in Massachusetts prenups, as well as as a mediator.

I am the author of The Generous Prenup: How to Support Your Marriage and Avoid the Pitfalls (2018). My articles on prenups and on mediation have also been published in numerous publications, including mediate.com. I believe that mediation is a talent, and that remaining neutral and unbiased are two of the most important aspects for success in the process.</p ","I believe in practicing mediation in the shadow of the law . This means that I will make sure mediation clients are informed as to what a legal court process or application of the law would suggest as an outcome, or a range of outcomes. This is because I believe the law is a distillation of equitable principles. Then people can make knowing and thoughtful choices and informed waivers. Another important quality of an effective mediator is responding truthfully to what is happening in the room. People trust you if they perceive that you're being truthful. That helps in the mediation process. Another area of my practice had been estate planning and probate of estates. I formerly practiced real estate law as part of my practice and started my law practice as a tax lawyer in a large downtown firm.

He was also involved with the representation of more than 200 individual homeowners in disputes with their associations.

However his experience has taught him that less than 10% of the civil cases that are filed actually reach trial, and that most conflicts are better resolved outside of the judicial system. His extensive experience in handling complex interpersonal conflicts, whether arising in a homeowner association, in the probate context, among neighbors, or between businesses that can benefit from maintaining an ongoing relationship, all have helped to shape his facilitative to evaluative mediation style.

Her exposure to mediation and the restorative practices employed through that Center changed her life and her journey. Kayre redirected her focus from Criminal Justice punitive practices toward restorative, resolution, and responsibility focuses in order to create community efficacy. The change from enforced ‘locking them up and throwing away the key' to solutions and process that create community and community member strength is key in creating a stronger fabric of community which ties all people together in a more positive and responsible manner. Empowering people creates opportunities to empower and support businesses, services, nonprofits, families in our communities.

My practice is based on the best practices in dispute resolution with a foundation rooted in a master's degree in dispute resolution, extensive training in specific techniques, and experience on what works. COACHING: One to one help to improve personal conflict response. Individuals can gain understanding of their own conflict response and how to improve their conflict management skills. MEDIATION: Facilitated negotiation where participants make the decisions. Families stand to gain enormously by using mediation to resolve conflict rather than the courts. Mediation allows family members to make the decisions for loved ones' welfare, costs less, and takes less time. Mediation also may cause less harm to the relationship than litigation. I can help with your conservatorship, elder care, parenting plan, financial support, and property distribution.

My name is Mordechai Rhine. I grew up in Monsey, NY, a delightful suburban community in New York State. Like many of us, I took marriage for granted. We date, we marry, we have kids, and we parent them. So simple it seemed, until things don't go so simply. I started my career as a community Rabbi and served in that capacity for over two decades. I got to see people in their personal struggles and triumphs, in adversity and in joy. On one particular occasion, when supporting a couple who was divorcing, I was introduced to the framework of mediation. I decided to find out more and discovered a style for conflict resolution that was grounded in principles that I had studied and taught all my life. Validating the past, yet focusing on the future, was a principle that I lived with. I had witnessed it as a truism to success in the people I had guided for many years. Shifting the focus from the initial ask, to uncover what people's interests really are, is a gift of personal discovery that a mediator assists with regularly when trying to discover common ground between the parties. In 2016 I began training in the field of mediation and found the family focused training to be focused mostly on divorce. Indeed, seeking to achieve an amicable divorce is monumental. To work with couples who are separating after being so close and help them to reconfigure their relationships to successfully parent their children from separate homes, is a challenging but rewarding endeavor. When successful, the amicable divorce enables men, women, and children to move forward in life from a challenging situation, to a bright and supported future. What interested me most though was a comment that a few mediators shared with me. They told me that a third of the couples that came to them for divorce, reconsidered after they were introduced to healthier communication styles. Many were able to reenter the marriage, engage each other and problem solve in healthier ways, and create a pleasant, if not truly blissful marriage as a result. I was truly intrigued by this and proceeded to expand my research and training to focus on in-marriage mediation. Today, most of my clients are focused on saving their marriage, and I have adapted a number of key mediation principles to assist couples in understanding themselves and their spouses, in healing, and in building healthier marriages. One of the great myths about professional mediation is that people think we just identify the area of disagreement and divide that in half. True mediation is far more profound and creative. When we practice mediation professionally, we look for interests and understanding such that we come to recognize how different issues are interrelated. We strive to discover how the topics, personalities, and situations fit together like puzzle pieces and we are able to produce solutions that are respected as win-win. Mediation is a journey. As a profession it is an ever evolving and improving model to bring difficult relationship situations to resolution. It is also a personal journey for the participants. It is a process of discovering depth of feeling and of practical solutions that can work for you. For me as a mediator it is a journey of creativity to discover each person's needs and how the participants can be sensitive to each other and (re)build a loving life together or separately, if need be. Moments of admiration are frequent for me as I take note of the effort, progress, and clarity that each person achieves in the process. The field of mediation charts a path between the legal realities that lawyers typically focus on, and the world of emotions that therapists typically focus on. I have found that by following this middle path that allows for critical thinking as well as deep emotions, very real and meaningful solutions emerge. True resolutions can be found even for fallout in the most treasured and close relationship of husband and wife. That in a nutshell is why I really value marriage mediation.

Typically these are 30 minute sessions at a rate of $99.</p ",,"CARE Marriage Mediation Process</p What to expect if you would like to work on your marriage and take it to a loving, nurturing place.</p Caucus (30 minutes) I prefer to make separate appointments for husband and wife by phone or zoom to properly understand what issues you are dealing with. Sometimes it is more appropriate for me to proceed right away and meet jointly with husband and wife.</p Joint sessions (90-120 minutes) Five steps to explore issues, develop effective tools, and share critical perspectives to help move your relationship to a loving and happy place.</p Step 1- Each of you gets the opportunity to say your story.</p Whether you are dealing with communication issues or relationship issues, this process can pave the way for healthy dialogue and a loving relationship. We work together to identify issues and proceed to address them with care and sensitivity. One of my favorite books relating to this stage is Richard Calson's <emYou Can Feel Good Again.</em</p Step 2- I invite each of you to present 3 things that you would like improved by your spouse, and 2 things that you feel you can work on to improve the marriage.</p In session we explore why you feel these 5 items are important to your relationship and to your marriage. I advise people to start with one small step of improvement in each area. One of my favorite books relating to this stage is James Clear's <emAtomic Habits.</em</p Step 3- What is Your Love Language?</p Sometimes couples seem to be devoted to each other but feel terribly disconnected. In this step we explore what fills your love tank and what depletes it. You and your spouse will have an opportunity to understand your own love communications language, and what communications are valued by your spouse. One of my favorite books relating to this stage is Gary Chapman's <emThe Five Love Languages.</em</p Step 4- Learning the Art of Loving Conversations</p When husbands and wives deal with difficult situations they will often slip into doses of contempt and defensiveness. Some simple changes in technique and presentation can help your spouse hear your concerns and enable you both to stay in problem solving mode, and on the same team. When you gain expertise in this area you will find that difficult conversations can actually be endearing (with a touch of humor) as you act as best friends. You both recognize that your love is greater than the issue at hand, and you can resolve issues together. One of my favorite books relating to this stage is John Gottman's <emThe Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work.</em</p Step 5- The Path Forward</p Conversations are the key to resolving issues and building a loving home. When you and your spouse develop the mutual ability to talk things through you have the keys to happiness and serenity. In this step we discuss what it takes to feel secure and safe in the relationship so that you can have open conversation with your spouse. You will learn the power of “leaning in” instead of “leaning out” when you have a concern in the relationship. One of my favorite books relating to this stage is <emCrucial Conversations </em(Patterson, Greeny, McMillain, Switzler).</p It is important to me that our sessions be as effective as possible. I encourage you to fill out authorizations to any therapists and mentors that you have, to be allowed to speak and collaborate with me. With your permission we can create a team to help you. I look forward to assisting you on your journey to a happy and nurturing marriage.</p ","Certified Mediator, Mediate.com (2021)</p Coaching Mentorship Training by GYE (2021)</p Masters in Educational Leadership, Bellevue University (2012)</p Masters of Rabbinic and Talmudic Studies, Beth Medrash Gevoha (1996)</p ","15 hours- Sacred not Secret, Elisheva Liss LMFT (2022)|22 hours- Family Dispute Resolution Training, Mediate University (2022)|2 hours- Deescalating High Emotions in Mediation, Nina Meierding (2022)|2 hours- Financials- Division of assets, child support, tax implications, Chip Rose (2022)|20 hours- Marital Intimacy Training, Simcha Fuerman LCSW (2021)|2 hours- How to navigate the Halachic and civil divorce process, Nefesh (2021)|10 hours- The Friendly Divorce, (2021)|8 hours- Workplace Mediation, Dr. Clare Fowler, (2021)|40 hours- Family Mediation, Jim Melamed Esq.

This is accomplished through customized financial tables enabling clients to see logical and equitable ways to divide assets before or after hiring an attorney. Services utilized before lawyering up will significantly lower cost. If we are hired after attorneys are retained, we can streamline the process and illustrate an equitable division of assets, adjusting for taxes and valuing pensions. Included in the financial road map is a 20-year cash flow spreadsheet which illustrates long-term effects of a settlement. Lifetime Planning has no product to sell; we do not manage money and are therefore completely objective with recommendations.

A questionnaire is provided to guide them in gathering financial documents and coming up with a budget. A spreadsheet is then created with percentages for each spouse, based on goals and the rules of equitable settlement. We often devise what-if scenarios to graphically illustrate a client's position post-divorce. We review each asset valuation and determine the proportion of separate and community property. Tax adjustments are calculated for assets such as capital gains, IRAs, 401ks, pensions, stock options, etc. so that each asset class is weighted on a more equal footing with the other assets. If alimony is possible and appropriate it can be offset with assets to give the paying spouse more of their pension (or other asset) and show the tax savings.</p When emotions run high as they often do during a divorce, she encourages clients to consider this as a business transaction and to look toward their future, not the past.

After deciding to divorce, a couple can sit down with us and negotiate and even though there might be some conflicts, mediation offers a less stressful and less costly way to divorce. The mediator is trained to help the couple through the negotiation process, and serves as a neutral, which means the mediator does not take anyone's side. If a couple wishes to be represented, we offer as an alternative, collaborative-divorce which means one attorney represents the interests of both parties. The attorney and the mediator work with the couple to arrive at an agreement. If during the mediation or collaborative divorce one party cannot agree then an attorney can represent the interests of that party. However, this will make the process more expensive as the Courts will then get involved. Louisiana Mediation strives to structure the divorce process to meet needs of our clients. An initial consultation of one hour is $75.00 and at that time we can explore options. It is better if both parties attend, but if one party is reluctant, the other party can come in alone.

This psychometric tool assesses communication in the workplace and provides insight into how all parties who work together manage to maintain their roles vis-a-vis others in the workplace. The main goal of the test is to address the dysfunctional interaction. When we think of the day-to-day interaction among those in the workplace, particularly when we are asked to help parties resolve their differences, we bring any number of theories and techniques to bear. Over the years, certain concepts come to the fore and are repeatedly used by individual dispute resolvers not only to assess the conflict but also to provide counseling and recommendations for amelioration. Test takers are asked to rank their behavior resulting in scores that are used by the test administrator to create profiles either of the individual or of the group. These profiles, in turn, are used to provide counseling and recommendations for future behavior. A high score in a profile represents a strength and a low score represents a weakness.

With that in mind, my approach to mediation is to give the parties to a dispute every opportunity to meet together, if appropriate, and consider all perspectives to their dispute: what they think they want and need, and what they really want and need in order to resolve the dispute. I strongly encourage them to consider all dimensions to the dispute, including strengths and weaknesses in their position as well as those of the other party. In addition, I urge consideration of what result might arise from an adversarial determination as well as the economic and emotional costs of getting to that point. Charles N.

Shosh Dworsky is an ordained rabbi, and offers mediation to clients from diverse backgrounds and walks of life, of any and all faiths or of no faith at all. She works with couples (including same-sex), family members, professional associates or friends, and can serve as a parenting consultant or expediter. Shosh provides a safe, neutral space in which to explore a conflict and resolve it. As mediator she acts as neither advocate nor judge, allowing the parties to set their own agenda, providing the kind of time for conversation that clients are unlikely to find in a courtroom or law office. Clients will find her to be respectful, fair, attentive, accepting, non-judgmental and broad-minded. The title ‘rabbi' indicates not that she is driven by doctrine, but that she is an experienced, thoughtful and caring person committed to helping people navigate pain and conflict and live with dignity. Shosh Dworsky's training in counseling and communication over the past twenty-five years has given her skills which she employs as mediator, counselor, educator, and chaplain. She received rabbinical ordination in 1998 (Jewish Theological Seminary of America) and worked with congregations in New York City and Portland, Oregon before returning to her native St. Paul and joining the staff at Carleton and St.Olaf Colleges as Associate Chaplain for Interfaith Life. Shosh has been on the roster of Qualified Neutrals under Rule 114 of the Minnesota General Rules of Practice since 2007. She is a regular volunteer mediator for the Dispute Resolution Center, Ramsey County, and currently sits on their Board of Directos.

Additionally she has volunteered with the Minneapolis Police Civilian Review Authority, with the Dispute Resolution Center (DRC) in Ramsey County Housing and Conciliation Courts, and with Ramsey County Volunteer Divorce Mediation Program.</p ","In her words: “Mediation as I practice it is an approach to dispute resolution that brings parties together for conversation and affords them the opportunity to determine for themselves how best to deal with the issues they bring to this conversation. The role of mediator as I see it is not to give advice, but to remain neutral and non-judgmental while helping to ensure that each person's thoughts, ideas, feelings or needs get expressed. Solutions people arrive at through the mediation process may include decisions to seek legal, financial, therapeutic, or other kinds of assistance outside of our mediation.

After all, religious organizations are made up of human beings who bring their emotions and personalities with them to Sunday services, choir practice, board meetings and other Church activities. Consequently, we should not be surprised that conflicts can easily arise between Churches, within Churches, between church groups, or among its individual members. There are many sources of conflict within the Church, such as differences in beliefs, values, opinions or simple misunderstandings. Perceptions of unfair treatment or problems in communicating can lead to disagreements or disputes. When an argument or disagreement arises between members of the Congregation, everyone feels the negative effects of the dispute, and the resulting tension serves as a distraction from the worship service and the positive aspects of a Christ centered organization. With this as the challenge, CMS is dedicated to helping Churches or other religious institutions find a Christian response to conflict resolution. These services are offered in a number of different ways. Whether it is mediation of inter or intra Church disputes, disagreements among members, or internal family conflicts with parishioners, we are all called by God to resolve conflicts in a peaceful and Christian way.

Searching for the best way to defend your legal rights as well as manage your costs can be emotionally draining. You are not only in a time of transition, but you are also headed into a season of transformation. The approach you and your spouse take toward this process and the professionals you choose to support you will make the difference between a stressful, financially and emotionally draining experience and one that brings you relief and resolution. No one can promise a painless process, but at least the challenges can be minimized. At Settlement Works, our commitment is to assist the resolution of everything from simple disagreements to complex, emotionally charged, high asset disputes. In every case, we believe there is an opportunity to heal and complete the existing relationship and open the door for a new relationship as effective co-parents and/or possibly respected friends. Additionally, couples who are already divorced often have ongoing issues that need resolution. Changes in support, custody, visitation and lifestyle differences can create serious challenges which call for a resolution outside of the typical litigation setting. With regard to civil litigation, mediation offers an effective and economical mechanism to resolve everything from a discovery dispute to the entire lawsuit. As with family law cases, many civil lawsuits have an emotional context that can be addressed and beneficially resolved for all concerned. I have been practicing law in California since 1975. My primary focus has always been Family Law, but I've also spent considerable with civil litigation matters. Although I've always had a settlement approach to the practice of law, I began actively mediating in 1999. I have been on the Los Angeles Superior Court Alternative Dispute Resolution Panel since 2000.

If combined with an attorney/mediator in joint session, the fee is $500 per hour.</p ","Although it seems like I've been mediating disputes since I was five years old, the inspiration for the Settlement Works mediation program came only after a 25 year career in civil litigation and family law, as well as many additional years of self-realization and transformational work.</p In my work with the Center for Enforcement of Family Support, a law practice dedicated to helping custodial parents collect their past due support, I saw the anger many divorced couples still carried, even many years after their divorce was final. I saw that this anger pre-empted and frustrated the resolution of legal issues, resulting in exorbitant legal fees and leading to residual emotional damage, especially to children caught in the middle.</p In 1999, I founded Settlement Works and began to explore a new approach to legal conflicts. Using traditional mediation as a cornerstone, this evolving approach offers an efficient resolution of legal disputes while addressing and healing the unresolved emotional issues of divorce and other types of family and civil conflicts.</p Using this approach I have mediated hundreds of Family Law and Civil Litigation matters.</p ","I look at mediation as an opportunity to engage in an informative exchange of ideas and opinions, while helping litigants resolve their differences with an economically and emotionally beneficial outcome.</p While successful mediation often entails several styles of dispute resolution, the most important element is safety. My goal is to empower the clients to appropriately express their wants and needs, while they develop and practice listening with a reasonable level of receptivity. I believe clients should be given a basic understanding of the laws at issue, so they can make informed decisions. I usually share my analysis and viewpoint freely with both parties, helping them see the strengths and weaknesses of their case.</p Although mediation can be very serious and have a significant impact on a party, I find it helpful to create a relaxed atmosphere with as much lightness as is appropriate and possible. At Settlement Works, we are fortunate to have our mediation on a classic Chris Craft motor yacht ( Concordance ) in Marina del Rey. Our clients tell us that the relaxing environment greatly reduces the stress of the meeting process. Personally, I find that communication flows more freely “on the water.” More often than not a client's wistful comment on the beautiful life going on outside, is all it takes to get the parties thinking that it really is time to work things out.</p ","I am a graduate of UCLA School of Law and hold a B.A. in Psychology from Arizona State University.

In mediation, based on the initial individual consultations with the parties, I estimate the amount of time the process will take and then design a customised package proposal, which caps the client's financial risk (i.e. if it takes longer than I estimated, you aren't trapped in a situation where you incur unbudgeted-for extra costs. When I mediate, my firm requirement is that all parties are required to make a financial contribution towards my fees and costs. It doesn't have to be 50-50 it is based on ability to pay, but there must be some payment, so that my neutrality is evident even in financial terms. If mediation is in a workplace context I enter into an agreement with the employer whereby payment will then be their responsibility, and I then require the parties to dispute to sign an Agreement to Mediate.</p For coaching and consulting we also work off a base rate, coupled by ability to pay.</p ","I first started professionally working as a mediator after I completed my training at the University of Prince Edward Island in Canada, 13years ago, and as a conflict coach after my training with Cinnie Noble, about 12 years ago.</p My ADR experience goes back decades, first when I was a trade unionist in Nova Scotia, where we regularly had to rely on mediators to assist labour and management to avoid industrial action and resolve contentious issues in collective bargaining and other workplace disputes, and subsequently in South Africa, during the height of the transition from apartheid to democracy. I therefore witnessed a range of mediators working with very different disputants under diverse circumstances and learned a great deal. In my own experience in mediating both workplace and family disputes, I continue building my understanding of conflict dynamics and ways of breaking impasses and creating unexpected positive solutions.</p ","Influenced by my background in conflict coaching I prefer to get to know each of the disputants first: their understanding of the conflict as seen through the lens of their own experience, values, needs, mandates, etc., and how they understand the other party's context and priorities. These are highly confidential conversations. They serve to give me information and insights and they also serve to establish trust between us (it is as important for the mediator to trust the client as vice versa). I do not invite the parties into the same conversation until I am satisfied that they are able to shift from their original positions in a way that takes the conversation forward in a construtive manner. When the mediation results in consensus, or agreement on some points and not others, I write up the agreement and give both parties the opportunity to review, clarify and refine it. In a family law situation, where the clients would rely on the agreement in court proceedings, I advise them to have the agreement scrutnitized by their respective lawyers, before signing.</p At times when agreement cannot be reached, I would continue working with a disputant, providing conflict coaching, which enables them to work out a way of moving forward despite that no agreement had been reached. a</p A standard feature of my mediation service it that I remain accessible to all parties for a period up to three months after the signing of a mediated agreement, in the event that some difficulty arises regarding the interpretation or application of the agreement. At times I would continue to facilitate a parental discussion around the managing/implementation of a parenting plan.</p </p ","BA in sociology University of Pretoria, Transvaal, South Africa</p MSW Dalhousie University, Nova Scotia, Canada</p Q.Med ADR Institute of Canada</p "," Basic Family Mediation – Family Mediation Canada (2022)| The 2021 Canada Divorce Act Amendments Take Hold: What You Need to Know about the First Four Months of Operation – Judge Nancy Flatters (2022)| Conflict Management Coaching Training – Cinergy Conflict Management Coaching (2015)| Practitioner Certificate in Alternate Dispute Resolution - University of Prince Edward Island (2013)| Creating Cultural and Organizational Change, Nova Scotia Commission for Human Rights (2011)| Restorative Justice Facilitation - Community Justice Society of Halifax (2010/2011)| Coaching Training and Learning (Adler International Learning/OISE at U of Toronto (2008/2009)| Mediator Training – Independent Mediation Arbitration Services of South Africa, in conjunction with the Michigan State Mediation Services, USA (1995)",, Mark Myers,myers24ma@aol.com,https://mediate.com/mediator-profile/Mark-Myers,Mediator ,RESOLUTIONS by Mark A.

As the divorced mother of two sons myself, I also appreciate the importance of being able to successfully co-parent with your ex-spouse after divorce and I believe the mediation process is more conducive to that goal. I am invested in helping people get divorced without letting fear and anger drive the process, so that decisions are made from a rational and grounded place. The ideal client for me is a couple who wants to look back on their divorce process and know that they handled things with dignity, and made choices from their best selves. I will bring compassion, structure, and expertise — and will ensure that you address every issue (legal and financial) necessary to file for divorce. As your mediator, my goal is to drive the process, not the outcome. My background is a little unusual for what I do. I have a business background and an MBA from Harvard. I believe that my varied business experience has actually been very helpful to my divorce mediation practice. First, I am comfortable with the numbers. And increasingly, divorce is a lot about dealing with money issues. I am not intimidated by complicated family finances, and can be helpful when one or both parties need to be well informed about their financial options.

Even the closest of families may find themselves at odds over critical aging-related choices. Older adults and their family members may disagree about: 1) plans for care; 2) whether it is time for an older adult to move from the family home and, if so, to where; 3) whether the older adult is a safe driver; 4) plans for financing long-term care; 5) the fair division of opportunities for family members to provide assistance; 6) whether a guardian/conservator is needed and, if so, who should serve; 7) how best to meet the needs of an adult with disabilities; and 8) distribution of estate assets after a death. Families and senior care professionals may disagree over the quality of services provided or the billing for those services. Residents in senior housing may have conflicts with management or other residents. At AIM Aging Issues Mediation, we help families stop fighting. Our eldercare mediators serve as neutral facilitators to help parties talk with each other, listen to each other and move forward in a respectful fashion to find mutually acceptable solutions to their conflicts. We help parties build consensus, share ownership of their problems and develop realistic solutions to meet the challenges facing older, ill or disabled adults today. We welcome calls directly from older adults or family members who want to decrease family tensions, as well as from the courts, attorneys, doctors, care facilities and other senior care professionals who want to help families resolve conflicts and preserve vital family relationships. DeLila Bergan practiced as an elder law attorney for many years before transitioning to eldercare mediation. She worked with clients who were preparing wills, trust, or powers of attorney and with those applying for governmental benefits (Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, VA. She assisted families struggling with dementia and guided them through the guardianship/conservatorship process. As a court-appointed guardian and conservator, she protected the rights of elderly clients and assisted them with both care and financial decisions. She worked with clients who had lost a loved one to probate estates and transfer assets. She worked with clients and Adult Protective Services to protect vulnerable adults from abuse, neglect and financial exploitation. Those experiences deepened her understanding of the issues facing aging, ill and disabled adults and family caregivers. Ms. Bergan is also a bioethicist with a special focus on aging and end-of-life issues. This training in medical ethics and patient rights complements her legal background. Individual and family-decision making for aging individuals is a complex mix of practical day-to-day concerns, financial quandaries, questions of physical and cognitive capacities and decisions for long-term and end-of-life care, all of which center on the needs of the individual at the heart of the controversy.

Thanks for taking the time to consider me to assist you in resolving your dispute. Mediation offers advantages that you can't get in litigation. Significantly, you get to determine whether to resolve your dispute and how to do it. That won't happen in court. Someone will win and someone will lose. Sometimes both sides actually lose. In mediation the win–win, is not a myth, it can really happen. My goal is to assist the parties to understand each other's perspective. Understanding does not mean agreeing, but through understanding the parties can often see past the blinders that litigation imposes and mine the creativity necessary to find a mutually beneficial resolution. Whenever possible, I use mediation through understanding. Instead of working separately against each other, the parties work together – often in the same room – to understand each other and resolve their differences. We don't ignore the legal aspects of the dispute, but we put it in the proper perspective, looking at strengths, but also recognizing risks and practical realities. This isn't easy. There is tension in any conflict. But parties who have the courage to address their differences and are open-minded enough to know that there are always two sides, can transcend their conflict and gain true resolution and in so doing preserve past, present or future relationships that are too important to destroy by litigation. There's more to it than that, but I'm only allowed 1600 characters here, so please give me a call and we'll talk. Thanks again.

Even as an Attorney, I fully believe that an attempt at a mediation process often makes litigation completely unnecessary. It is also usually much less expensive and provides for much more control of the outcome. Why should we give someone in a black dress (Judge), who does not know us at all, and has only a few minutes to listen to us, the power to ORDER us to a particular resolution of OUR case…? The common theme with Court-Ordered resolutions is that they are decided fairly quickly in Court–and NO ONE leaves happy–usually not even the lawyers. We have witnessed disputes, that had persisted for years, even between long-term friends or family members, that resisted even the “genius” of Attorneys and the Court-system, resolved in literally only hours. We have seen these individuals enter the mediation room as “disputants,” unable to talk to each other, or even look at each other, and then after Mediation, leave as friends again. These results cannot be guaranteed for every Mediation case, but the odds are probably in your favor Divorces or business, personal, or neighborhood disputes should not be hammered to Court, forced to litigation like a broken record . . . as if there were no other option. Alternative solutions, like Mediation or Arbitration, always make better financial sense–and almost always produce better, less expensive, longer-lasting results. Isn't this what we all want?

Betts Family Law &, Mediation PLLC,"As an attorney and a mediator, I help divorcing couples resolve property, support and parenting issues by agreement. Traditional litigation processes tend to feed and escalate conflict. I feel people are better served by maintaining control over results and managing conflict in a way that engages rather than divides. Since 2007, I've focused my practice on client centered alternatives to litigation including mediation and Collaborative Process. A successful outcome begins with identifying your interests, needs and goals. Skilled communication moves the process forward. Agreements are reached when interests are prioritized and addressed. I am an attorney who has practiced family law in Washington State since 2001. In 2007, I trained in Mediation and Collaborative Law process and began focusing entirely on helping families resolve issues without court intervention. Since then, I've completed hundreds of additional training hours in communication, interest based dispute resolution, and co-parenting coaching. In April 2019, I completed the required number of observed mediation hours for Mediator Certification from the VOAWW Dispute Resolution Center in Snohomish County. In addition, I have a special interest in recovery from substance use disorders and the impact of these diseases on the family system.

I accept a limited number of cases on a sliding scale when both parties earn less than 400% of the Federal Poverty Guideline.</p ","After training in mediation and Collaborative Law practice in 2007, I began representing clients as a Collaborative Process attorney. In Collaborative Process, participants enter into a Participation Agreement confirming their intention to work toward a negotiated resolution together with a professional team. They agree not to resort to courts for decision making. The process is interest based and involves many of the same skills used by mediators. I refreshed my mediation training in 2010 and added mediation services to my family practice. Although the skills in Collaborative Practice and Mediation are similar, there is a key difference mediators are neutral and do not give advice whereas Collaborative Process attorneys represent and advise one party. I've been practicing as a solo mediator but wanted Certification which requires observation by other trained mediators. In September 2017, I began the Practicum program at the VOAWW Dispute Resolution Center in Snohomish County in order to complete the observed mediation hours required to earn Mediator Certification. I received Certification in April 2019 and continue to volunteer at the DRC in addition to my private practice.</p ","I primarily practice interest based mediation (generally referred to as Facilitative Mediation). This means that I work with parties to identify their goals, needs, and interests as well as the needs and interests of children if the participants are parents. Then I facilitate a conversation where participants consider ideas and resolutions that value and incorporate their needs and interests. Parties in this style of mediation have a strong interest in maintaining control over the resolution and avoiding court intervention.</p The interest based approach differs in significant ways from the evaluative settlement process often used by litigation attorneys. In that mediation process, the parties are generally in separate rooms with their attorneys and the mediator shuttles offers back and forth. It is a more give and take negotiation with the specter of a looming trial strongly influencing the result. This process can be helpful in some cases but generally feels more adversarial.</p ","BA Oakland University Rochester MI JD Southwestern Law School Los Angeles CA</p ",, "Grace Seferian, PE, PMP, MEM, LEED AP, QSD/P",graceseferian@resolvewithgrace.com,"https://mediate.com/mediator-profile/Grace-Seferian,-PE,-PMP,-MEM,-LEED-AP,-QSD/P",,ResolveWithGrace,"As the founder of ResolveWithGrace, Grace Seferian, is an EXPERT IN CONSTRUCTION and practices alternative dispute resolution (ADR) specializing in mediation, arbitration and dispute review boards (DRB)s.

Though Robin accepts a limited number of legal cases, Robin's primary practice is Dear Co-Parent where she is a parenting plan coordinator (PPC), mediator, and custody coach who helps parents navigate co-parenting, custody and complex issues related to children. Much of her practice serves clients who find themselves at the intersection of law and mental health particularly cases where there has been abuse, trauma, restraining orders and/or DCFS involvement. In addition to working with families, Robin coaches individual clients to co-parent and communicate with their ex in a child-centered and effective manner that reduces conflict and keeps children at the center but not in the middle of the issues. Robin also maintains a limited scope legal practice where she assists people who have a criminal case or cases that require the investigative skills of a former prosecutor. In her legal practice, Robin's clients run the gamut from victims of crimes to those accused, college students who have been sexually abused, people who have been harassed, the falsely accused, the bullied, the divorcing and parents who need assistance in determining a co-parenting plan or custody plan. Robin works with clients who want to avoid court, those who have cases pending in court, those considering filing a case, as well as people who have administrative hearings, Title IX actions, or DMV hearings. Robin has developed a special niche in the cases where criminal meets family law and vice versa. For example, these cases can involve domestic violence, child abuse, restraining orders, and sexual abuse. Robin has represented victims of crime as well as the people who have been falsely accused of crimes to gain an advantage in a family law case. In both her practices, Robin draws on her experience as a former prosecutor as well as a clinical therapist. Robin Sax is a former Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney who focused on prosecuting sex crimes against children. As one of the prosecuting attorneys for the Child Sexual Assault division of the Los Angeles County Sex Crimes Unit, Robin worked with a multi-disciplinary team at UCLA's Rape Treatment Center/The Stuart House. While working with law enforcement, victims' advocates, social workers, and members of the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services, she investigated and prosecuted hundreds of child sexual assault cases. As a therapist, Robin has worked at LAC/USC, The Violence Intervention Program, Green Dot School as well as the Adult Outpatient Psychiatric Unit at Harbor UCLA. Robin is trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), MAP/Practicewise, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT). Prior to focusing on crimes against children, Robin handled hundreds of other cases including driving under the influence, theft, murder, robbery, and the like. She has conducted hundreds of contested hearings and trials for both the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office as well as the Riverside County District Attorney's Office. Robin is a nationally recognized expert in child sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse. She is an in-demand public speaker on topics where family law and criminal law intersect–child sexual assault, family violence, domestic abuse, stalking, and Internet abuse. Sax regularly shares her valuable insight and expertise as a legal analyst for such networks as NBC, ABC, CNN, and CBS analyzing high-profile cases and causes. Robin has written six books that draw upon her vast experience as a criminal lawyer, legal commentator, child advocate and parenting expert. The titles of her books include: “The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Criminal Justice System” and “Predators and Child Molesters: A Sex Crimes DA Answers 100 of the Most Asked Questions” all of which draw on her vast experience as a prosecutor and victim rights advocate. Her powerful insights regularly appear in Huffington Post, Psychology Today, People Magazine, The New York Times, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, The Los Angeles Times and the Women in Crime Ink blog.

I understand the natural inclination to be guarded during conflict, and I work to dismantle those defenses, allowing for more productive and constructive conversations. By alleviating defensiveness, individuals can better engage with one another, leading to a more effective mediation process.</p Moreover, I am mindful of both financial and emotional resources throughout the mediation journey. I recognize the importance of efficient use of time and financial investments, striving for a resolution that is not only legally sound but also considers the broader emotional and psychological impact on the parties involved.</p In my practice, I focus on uncovering common goals shared by the parties. By emphasizing these shared objectives, I aim to redirect attention away from adversarial positions toward collaborative solutions.

Lucy Nichols focuses her practice on working with families in conflict who have children. As an experienced family mediator, her goal is to help families make their own important parenting decisions. Lucy emphasizes the undeniable evidence that parental conflict is the single worst predictor for a child's adult life and relationships. By reducing conflict, parents can shift to a more child-centered approach for resolving their legal issues. Once parents are able to see their child's needs through child-focused lenses, they are ready to find compromises and reach resolutions that best serve their child and meet the parents' common goal of raising a healthy, happy, well-adjusted child. Lucy also mediates: custody modification, relocation, child support, blending families, reconciling families, elder care mediation, parent-child conflict, parent and adult child conflict, same sex families, Christian Conciliation, and marital separations including issues of division of property and spousal support. Lucy is certified by the Virginia Supreme Court as a Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court mediator, a Circuit Court mediator for family cases and as a Mentor Mediator. Lucy also served as a Roster Mediator for the Fairfax Juvenile amp; Domestic Relations District Court for 5 years, working with a diverse group of clients who were already in litigation and often in very high conflict situations.

Our goal is to help create paths to more positive outcomes when important issues are on the line and communication can be most difficult. Founded by Erik M Feig, an accomplished attorney and parent in a neurodiverse family himself, our practice has a particular interest in working with the unique issues and challenges facing parents in families where neurodiversity and special needs are factors. We bring a practical, real-world approach to help parents engage each other more constructively when decisions impacting their neurodivergent children are required. We also serve families seeking to resolve issues that extend beyond the immediate family to impact broader relationships, especially among adult siblings and aging family members. Discussions involving life stage decisions, such as elder care, advanced directives, estate planning, living arrangements, aging in place, financial and estate planning, as well as issues involving family gatherings, cherished heirlooms, or sharing the caretaking load can trigger strong emotions, whether family relationships are strained or close. We help our clients engage more productively so that instead of being stuck on old patterns and resentments, they can focus on what's next. We appreciate that every family and every business we work with is unique. We offer process to help each of our clients find ways to align with each other. Erik M. Feig founded Feig Mediation Group in Bethesda, Maryland, to help parents, families and businesses create more positive outcomes when communication is difficult. He is a mediator, accomplished attorney and a parent of three amazing children. As a mediator, he is committed to helping his clients align with each other when important issues and decisions need to be addressed and the old, familiar ways of doing things are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of today – or tomorrow. It's an approach that recognizes – and seeks to mitigate against – the stress and harm that can result from poor or ineffective communication and unresolved conflict. As a parent in a neurodiverse family himself, Mr. Feig has a particular commitment to working with parents where neurodiversity and special needs are factors in their families. Mr. Feig's extensive toolset upon which he can draw for the benefit of the clients he serves sets him apart from so many practitioners with “traditional” notions of what mediation can achieve. His experience and training extends to both family mediation and business mediation, including parent alignment issues, separation and divorce (e.g., co-parenting and child access issues, and economic issues such as division of property and assets, and support), high conflict family disputes, elder and adult family mediation, parenting coordination, and collaborative law practice. Combining all of this with a background in engineering, Mr. Feig helps his clients step back to see the bigger picture so they can better explore what's possible.

The Weinstein Law Group, PLLC has more than three decades of practice in representing victims of construction accidents. Given the heightened amount of risk involved, construction sites are heavily observed by state and federal safety regulations. However, despite the strict criteria that govern construction work, multiple parties involved often fail to protect their workers. Construction site owners, equipment manufacturers, general contractors, and sub-contractors may all play a role in a construction accident. However, all of these forces will do whatever they can to minimize their responsibilities when a worker is hurt. You don't have to go through the complicated insurance claims process alone. Work with a skilled New York construction accident lawyer who can fully investigate your accident, determine each party's liability, and guide you through the legal process. The bottom line is that any time you're wounded on a construction job, you need to look out for yourself and your family.

It evokes a range of emotions from fear to anger and hurt. Divorce is generally not a positive experience, but one that must happen if a spouse or both spouses wish to end their legal relationship. We can help take some of the sting and uncertainty out of the process by helping divorcing partners and parents by guiding them through this and letting them process their feelings and thoughts in a collaborative way with a goal in mind. That goal is to streamline the divorce process in a way that causes no harm or added conflict, manages expectations, and identifies shared end goals for everyone.

Many folks will benefit from mediation. The no-court, confidential options suited for many people. But, by far, helping parents through a difficult time and making children's lives more peaceful is what I value most on a personal level.

During mediation we will discuss and attempt to resolve complex parenting schedules, how day to day decisions is made, how time with the children will be shared and when to introduce a new partner.

Mediation can resolve your situation with an agreement that takes care of your individual situation and needs. An added benefit to mediation is that anything said or written in mediation is confidential, which is the opposition in litigation.

My practice emphasizes mediation and arbitration whenever possible as a more efficient alternative to lawsuits, court hearings, and expensive lawyering. When litigation is unavoidable, I provide specialized counseling and strategic guidance for navigating the courtroom. For more than 18 years, my work has covered marital dissolution, business valuations, property division, child custody orders, child support calculations, and spousal support awards. I also help individuals with prenups, adoptions, cohabitation agreements, LGBTQ+ legalities, and pet parenting contracts. I am certified as an arbitrator by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, and as of 2023 hold a Certificate in Dispute Resolution from the Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution at Pepperdine University's Caruso School of Law.

My hourly mediator fee is $450, though I also can offer flat fee mediation depending on the complexity of the individual case. My arbitrator rate is $500 per hour, as is my rate in a representative capacity in a mediation or arbitration.</p ","I have been working in the ADR arena for many years in private settlement conferences, and in stand-alone mediations and arbitrations. I have worked with hundreds of family law clients in varied roles (representative, consultant, mediator, arbitrator), and have focused my practice since 2020 on ADR exclusively. I have conducted dozens of virtual mediations and arbitrations since then, though I have also worked in in-person matters during this time. In 2021, I began the process of obtaining some additional credentialing through the Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution at Pepperdine University's Caruso School of Law, and earned a Certificate in Dispute Resolution in 2023. I expect to earn my LL.M. degree in 2024.</p ","In mediation, I typically utilize a blended approach, as each case brings with it its own dynamic and special circumstances. In cases that might benefit from a more evaluative approach like those that need a risk assessment if mediation fails and litigation becomes necessary I lean on my 18+ years as a family law litigator to provide some perspective and a range of possible outcomes that can help parties formulate a more informed settlement. In cases involving more complex emotional or psychological issues, I use a more facilitative approach to broaden the settlement discussions and offer creative approaches to resolving particularly difficult issues. The evaluative approach tends to rely more on a legal approach to issues, whereas the facilitative model relies more on pragmatism and in finding areas of overlapping interests. Family law matters often involve issues that may require both approaches at different times during the process, and I am comfortable moving in and out of these approaches as the matter requires.</p In my role as arbitrator, I find that a less formalistic approach suits most cases, though if the parties and attorneys express an interest in following a particular set of arbitration rules, I will of course accommodate them. Arbitration is much more of a formal legal process than mediation is, though I will invite the parties and attorneys to work together to resolve issues short of the actual arbitration proceeding if that is possible.

I believe that communication, trust, and compromise can help every situation end amicably. When people have these three things at their disposal, they can feel peace, calmness, empowerment, and just an overall sense that they have at least a bit of control over their lives. When you meet with me, you will find a caring, sympathetic ear that listens and you can trust. And that's the beauty of divorce mediation: you can find someone who meshes with you. Divorce mediation is a process that enables couples to work through their issues, regardless of what has happened in the past. The goal of mediation is to aid couples in moving forward with their lives. A listening ear and an open heart are the most powerful things that a mediator can provide to a divorcing couple. I am a state-qualified neutral who became interested in mediation during law school more than 15 years ago. I grew up in the Stillwater and Woodbury area and now live in Hudson, WI. I care about the people around me and want to see everyone leading the life they hoped they would. I believe wholeheartedly in family and divorce mediation and am dedicated to making a difficult divorce or family situation as painless as possible. I have been mediating all my life, no matter what my job title declared. I feel that communication is very important and that most problems come from a breakdown in communication. When people can communicate and compromise, problems can be resolved. Even when I was young, I was always looking for creative and constructive ways to help my friends and family work through their issues. Friends would consult me when they wanted advice. Family members sought out my opinion because they claimed I listened and would thoroughly contemplate their situations. So it seems only natural for me to be in this role. And more than anything, I love helping people. I want to help you get the relief and empowerment you deserve.

These particular instances involve individuals sustaining injuries due to the failure of businesses—such as apartment complexes, shopping centers, gas stations, or restaurants—to implement sufficient security measures to safeguard their patrons and visitors. When an unsafe property becomes the backdrop for your injury, the potential ramifications can be both physically and emotionally challenging. However, there exists a path towards seeking substantial financial recovery to address various facets of your ordeal, from medical expenses to the pain and suffering you've endured, and even the wages you may have lost as a result. Mike Rafi's legal prowess shines particularly brightly in cases where individuals have suffered harm due to inadequate security protocols. These cases extend to scenarios where a business establishment, entrusted with ensuring the safety of those who enter its premises, falls short of its responsibilities. This could include failing to install proper lighting, neglecting to address broken security systems, or disregarding the presence of potential hazards. By leveraging Mike Rafi's expertise, you position yourself to secure a compensation that mirrors the gravity of your situation. This can encompass not only the quantifiable expenses—such as medical bills and income loss—but also the intangible toll your suffering has taken on your quality of life. Remember, if you have been victimized due to inadequate security measures at a business property, you possess the potential to reclaim a significant portion of what you've lost. The compensation obtained through a skilled legal approach can help you regain financial stability and promote healing. Consult with Mike Rafi and his team to explore the avenues available to you and initiate the process of seeking the reparation you deserve.

I have been practicing as a Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor for 20 years.After witnessing the pain caused to so many families during the process of traditional divorce, I became trained in family law mediation, parent coordinating, and collaborative divorce in order to provide a kinder, more thoughtful option for families going through divorce. The focus of my practice is with individuals and couples considering divorce or in the process of divorcing, and co-parents. I provide individuals and couples who want to end their marriage with a process that will allow them to transition their family with a minimal amount of damage, emotionally. It's not just the loss of relationship that damages people but the degree of conflict that happens in the divorce which causes the most damage. I coach and help couples understand the complexities of the divorce process, create a parenting plan that keeps their children front and enter, and helps individuals bring their best selves to the process. When preparing for divorce, clients often bring strong emotions to the process, which can interfere with the productive resolution of issues. People want to be heard. It's the reason why so many people say, “I just want my day in court.” Therapists are trained to closely follow a client's narrative and listen to their stories. Therefore, skills I bring to the mediation process make it less likely that I as the mediator will become impatient with a disputant's pace or attempt to rush the process. Moreover, I as a therapist am trained to simultaneously attend to content and process of communication during mediation. The pain that people experience during divorce usually has more to do with the inherent adversarial nature of a traditional divorce, rather than the loss of the relationship. In 2011 I founded Insights Collaborative Therapy Group in Dallas, Texas. Insights is a highly-respected professional practice providing comprehensive collaborative mediation and theraputic profesional services. Today I am one of four partners at Insights.

I believe in helping clients bring the best of themselves to the mediation table and empowering clients to be active participants in making decisions about their lives – leading to better, longer lasting settlement agreements. A marriage and family therapist is uniquely trained to help people regulate their emotions during difficult processes and allows for an openness that vastly improves the negotiation process. Settlements are achieved in a cooler, calmer emotional environment.</p Mediation is a process that brings people in conflict together with a neutral third person who assists them in reaching a voluntary agreement. I help you prepare for mediation, clarify the issues, consider options, and reach a workable settlement that fits their needs. Mediation gives people a relatively quick, inexpensive way to work out their differences while addressing everyone's needs and interests. Decisions reached in mediation are created by the parties involved, not by the mediator or a judge.</p I encourage direct communication between the parties and help people decide for themselves the best settlement. It allows for the expression of emotions, often defuses anger, explores creative means of solving problems, and promotes cooperation between people. My style is especially beneficial in situations where there will be an ongoing relationship because the process helps preserve the strengths of a relationship.

They had no jobs and neither could speak English. Perhaps, like most children, I didn't appreciate until I matured the tremendous influence my parents had on shaping my beliefs and values. I learned from their experience that despite adversity, with passion, determination, a strong work ethic, and, most importantly, a respect for others, you can achieve fulfillment. My first passion, perhaps because of my height of 6'7″ and Indiana upbringing, was basketball. My success, fueled by my parents' values, led me to receive offers to play collegiately at institutions throughout the United States. I attended Cornell University where I graduated from the School of Hotel Administration, long regarded as the best hospitality school in the world. At Cornell, I earned GTE Academic All American and All-Ivy League honors while on the basketball team. It is at Cornell that I developed my next passion – Food amp; Beverage and the intense focus on providing quality service to others. While I worked at some highly regarded hotels and restaurants in both New York and Florida, it is the training relating to service to others that led me to law school. In 1991, I graduated from the University of Florida College of Law. I spent the first 5 years of my legal career working primarily as a professional malpractice defense attorney, at the Tampa law firm of Annis, Mitchell, Cockey, Edwards, and Roehn. Although I was well trained by a firm of highly skilled attorneys and learned the foundational legal skills desired by all new lawyers, saving large corporations money never quite provided me with the desired level of personal and professional satisfaction. In 1996, I departed Annis, Mitchell to join my brother as well as law school classmate, Chris Gray, to develop an Employee Rights practice dedicated to assisting victims of workplace harassment, bullying, discrimination, and broken promises, and to aid people wronged, tormented, abused, belittled, or underpaid at their place of work. For almost a quarter-century, I have largely dedicated my professional life in service to such victims and, over time, have learned the real value of the hospitality service education and training I received. While providing a high-quality hospitality service experience to someone during their restaurant visit or hotel stay was professionally rewarding to me, I have found no greater professional fulfillment than providing high-quality legal service and achieving corrective results for individuals who have suffered unlawful treatment at the hands of their employers. I have counseled thousands of individuals. I have achieved multiple million-dollar recoveries for my clients. And, while proud of those results, when clients occasionally question whether the size of their loss sufficiently warrants my undertaking of their case, I quickly reflect that, over the years, some of the smallest monetary recoveries have had the most profound and significant impact on altering or affecting my clients' life circumstances. For over two decades, I have passionately provided service in the protection of Employee Rights and, during that time, have been fortunate and humbled to receive various peer and professional accolades: - I was among the first group of lawyers in the State of Florida to attain Board Certification in the area of Labor and Employment law. This certification allows me to proudly tell you that the Florida Bar recognizes me as an expert in that area of law. The distinction has remained intact without interruption, as the Florida Bar has, on three separate occasions, issued recertification. - 2015 Lawyer of the Year Employment law-individuals Tampa Bay Area - 2017 Lawyer of the Year Employment law-individuals St. Petersburg area - Named to Florida Trends magazine ‘Legal Elite' 10 times - Top-rated attorney by Super Lawyers 2006-present - Best Lawyers in America 2006-2019 - 2007-2021 AV-Preeminent rating by Martindale-Hubbell, endorsed by both peers and the Judiciary (the highest possible rating in both legal ability and ethical standards) - Voted #1 in “Employment Law: Individuals” on TAMPA Magazine's Top Lawyers 2018 list. </ul ",https://www.floringray.com/,United States,Tampa,Florida,33602,33602,Accidents|Personal Injury,,,,,,,, Meg Beveridge,megbeveridge@hotmail.com,https://mediate.com/mediator-profile/Meg-Beveridge,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Carrie Sue Doxsee,carriesue@lawinkc.com,https://mediate.com/mediator-profile/Carrie-Sue-Doxsee,,,,,,,,,64118,,,,,,,,, Julie Mersereau,julie@jmersereaulaw.com,https://mediate.com/mediator-profile/Julie-Mersereau,Divorce Mediator and Collaborative Law Attorney,"Mersereau Law Office, PLLC","Julie V.

Carmen uses her extensive mediation experience and training to help you bridge your differences and reach an agreement, without being subjected to a court proceeding beyond your control. In the family law realm, divorce is tremendously unsettling. It is an emotional and difficult process, but it does not have to be adversarial. She guides you through the divorce process, as well as any custody or visitation questions, at your pace, keeping in mind that this can be an overwhelming process, but with the knowledge that both your concerns and matters that you may not have even considered will be addressed. For commercial cases, Carmen relies on her years practicing commercial law in the areas of corporate securities, real estate, and trust and estates. Commercial disputes can be complicated and at times emotional, but by their very nature mediation offers a way to address them in a way that provides each party an opportunity to offer and consider reasonable and creative compromises. Carmen also speaks Spanish fluently and firmly believes that all parties should be able to represent themselves in the language in which they feel most comfortable.

The model assumes that the transformation of the interaction itself is what matters most to parties in conflict – even more than settlementon favorable terms. Therefore, the theory defines the mediator's goal as helping the parties to identify opportunities for empowerment and recognition shifts as they arise in the parties' conversation, to choose whether and how to act upon these opportunities, and thus to change their interaction from destructive to constructive (Bush amp; Pope, 2002).</p A transformative mediator should be able to:</p <ol - Be comfortable with conflict, including strong emotion and negative communication patterns.</li - Respect the choices of the parties, including their choice to participate in the mediation.

In 2017, Jacinta transformed her mediation practice by studying and applying the Insight Approach to her work. She created a comprehensive Insight Mediation training program, The Curious Mediator, which dives deeply into a relational definition of conflict and helps mediators work with targeted curiosity to help parties gain insight and change their patterns of behaviour to open up pathways to understanding. Not quite a magic wand but almost! Mediators and collaborative professionals who learn the Insight Approach say things like, Finally this makes sense of what I see and experience in the room. , This learning is exhilarating. and I wish we had known this 20 years ago!

Described as the fourth pillar of conflict resolution, Insight Mediation seeks to understand and work with the human behaviours that get in the way of productive dialogue. The Insight Approach defines conflict from a social/relational theory as a pattern of behaviours that block learning and openness. Insight Mediators use targeted curiosity to explore the threats that are causing the conflict behaviours, so that destructive patterns of behaviour can be understood and changed. We see these behaviours as a natural human response to a perception of threat. Rather than containing or correcting the behaviours, we help clients gain insight and clarify meaning. All of this is more productive and efficient as we are getting to the heart of the matter and the conflict behaviours that block dialogue, so clients can make better decisions.</p Facilitative.
