Legal disputes can be messy, but it doesn’t have to be this way.
Mediation provides a fair and balanced opportunity to resolve your situation while decreasing the financial impact of litigation.
Mediation provides a fair and balanced opportunity to resolve your situation while decreasing the financial impact of litigation.
As an alternative to trial, mediation is a neutral, balanced process focused on reaching an agreement between parties. Mediation can often be both scheduled and resolved much sooner than going to trial. Because of this, mediation is an excellent approach to reach an agreement quickly and more cost-effectively.
A mediator does not represent either person or make decisions like a judge. The mediator’s role is to help the client understand the other person’s position and to facilitate a temporary and/or permanent resolution without the expense of a drawn-out court battle.
Feel confident with an experienced attorney who will mediate your case with patience, respect, and common sense. Whether in cases of divorce, child custody, or other family matters, mediation can help both parties reach a fair resolution.
During your session, Michele will lead the parties through the mediation process, asking questions, prompting each party to speak, and discussing potential solutions focused on reaching an agreement. After mediation, a Settlement Agreement will serve as a record of the proceedings.
Michele is knowledgeable and well respected and I could tell she had a reputation for being a straight shooter. Although she minimized unnecessary litigation, she got into court when things got crazy.

She consulted with me and gave me honest and professional advice about my situation and what I needed to do. This led to me finally getting my estate planning in order and now I can rest easier knowing that my children will be taken care of and my assets will be handled as I want them.
