After litigating cases for 18 years, I determined to pursue a better way of resolving disputes by learning the art of mediation.  Bringing those skills to divorce mediation helps empower the indiduals involved by allowing their voice to be heard and by allowing them to to find a path forward shaped and agreed to by those who live with the issues day-to-day.   Although the process can take time it usually results in a better outcome and sets the stage for a better future than if the outcome is set by a Court.
