Mediation not litigation not only saves you time and money, but allows you to create your own compromised agreement rather than taking a chance on what a court might order or decide. Any issue or case in an area of law can be resolved amicably and cheaply with Mediation.. I formed CCMA SOLUTIONS, LLC (Consultation, Collaboration, Mediation & Arbitration) and mainly focus on Alternative Dispute Resolutions as a Certified Mediator. My 33 years of practice as a lawyer and 12 years as a Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge, along with my Mediation Certification from Northwestern University, give me a unique ability to resolve a multitude of cases fairly and efficiently without having to waste time and money litigating them in court. Although many of my cases are Divorce and Paternity, I have also Mediated a multitude of topics including: Contract disputes, Landlord/Tenant leases, Probate disputes, Real Estate issues, Accidents and Personal Injury cases, Partnerships and Corporate disputes, Customer Complaints, Money Judgments and Human Resource issues are just a few of the areas I have successfully settled through mediation. Mediation works well to settle any type of civil litigation. I have resolved claims that have not yet been filed, cases that are pending and post-judgment motions.When you Mediate with CCMA I help you resolve your disputes faster and cheaper, and with input from you, your clients, customers, employees and others involved in the dispute, rather than pursuing time consuming and expensive litigation with little or no input into the outcome of your dispute. I really enjoy resolving all types of conflicts and disputes. I look forward to helping others reach a peaceful resolution of their case or dispute that results in a written agreement adopted by all parties. Whether the case has been filed, it's a grievance or a complaint, I can resolve the issues of conflict before you spend the time and money in court and risk having a judgment filed against you, your company or your clients.RESOLVE IT TODAY...CALL CCMA!!!!CCMA SOLUTIONS, LLCCell.
