• Family disputes can be exceptionally delicate, often intertwined with deeply personal issues such as grief, aging, disability, finances, relationships, and housing. Family mediation provides a space where challenging conversations can result in resolved conflicts and healed relationships. Family dispute resolution mediation is ideal for families:

    • Confronting challenges related to grief, aging, or caregiving where sensitive issues like elder care or disability support must be resolved with empathy and understanding.

    • Facing financial or housing disputes who wish to address conflicts constructively without damaging meaningful relationships.

    • Experiencing relationship strain where open, guided communication can help heal rifts and foster a sense of unity.

  • Mediation offers separating couples a cost-effective and predictable means to design Separation Agreements and Parenting Plans that are tailored to clients' unique needs. In a supportive environment, those choosing separation mediation can engage in constructive dialogue fostering collaborative solutions.

    Don’t surrender the power to make decisions that will impact you and your future. Divorce through mediation is ideal for:

    • Partners seeking guidance as they work towards an equitable and amicable separation.

    • Divorcing or separating couples pursuing an alternative to a costly adversarial process to resolve issues such as:

      • Custody

      • Child support

      • Property division

    • Those hoping to avoid the anxiety and financial burden of litigating a separation.

  • An alternative to court-litigated arrangements, custody mediation services are a different path to co-parenting. Emphasizing cooperation, custody mediation allows parents to discuss and resolve custody arrangements, visitation schedules, and co-parenting strategies, among other issues.  


    Using a mediator for parenting planning saves you -- and your children -- the headache and pain of going through the family court system. The custody mediation process is ideal for parents:

    • Trying to create or modify a co-parenting plan while keeping the child’s best interests in focus

    • Struggling to communicate effectively but are willing to work collaboratively with the help of a neutral mediator.

    • Looking for a cost-effective alternative to lengthy court proceedings, allowing parents to resolve custody disputes more efficiently.

  • Workplace conflict can arise even in organizations with strong teams and committed leadership. When communication breaks down between colleagues, supervisors, or business partners, unresolved tension can begin to shape collaboration, decision-making, and workplace trust.

    Business mediation services provide a structured, confidential process where participants can address disputes directly, clarify expectations, and develop workable agreements for moving forward.

    In business mediations, the mediator’s role is to serve as a neutral, nonjudgmental facilitator. The focus is not on fault or investigation, but on creating the conditions for meaningful dialogue, informed participation, and durable workplace protocols.

    Mediation is often most effective as an early intervention, before conflict escalates into corrective action plans, adverse employment decisions, or organizational rupture. It allows the people most familiar with the workplace culture and structure to collaboratively design solutions that are realistic and sustainable over time.

    Business mediation may be appropriate for:

    • Business partners or co-owners navigating disputes related to roles, responsibilities, financial expectations, or long-term direction

    • Colleagues experiencing recurring interpersonal friction that disrupts communication or team functioning

    • Leadership–employee conflict, where expectations, boundaries, or workplace dynamics require clearer structure and dialogue

    • Organizations seeking a confidential, process-driven approach to resolving conflict while supporting workplace clarity and accountability

    Because workplace mediation involves professional stakes, confidentiality and informed consent are central to the process. Clear boundaries are established at the outset regarding what remains within mediation and what, if anything, is shared outside the room by agreement.

    If you are considering mediation for a workplace dispute, or want to learn more about how business mediation services support workplace clarity, communication, and durable agreements, we invite you to reach out to discuss whether business mediation services may be a good fit for your situation.
