Firm: Mediation Saves
Practice Areas: Mediation
I am a full time certified Mediator who guides clients to craft financial and parenting agreements that meet their essential interests and which can save them money and future heartache. When parents are divorcing, I hep them focus on the best interests of their children and how to preserve the parental relationship.. I worked for eight years in the trenches of litigation in a large downtown Boston law firm, and saw people waste tremendous amounts of time and money litigating. I also saw the emotional toll that litigants face. Consequently I switched to mediation. I worked for one of the founders of divorce mediation in Massachusetts from whom I learned how to successfully mediate many apparently irresolvable conflicts.. I have a large family with many strong personalities. I also am an active volunteer in my children's school and community. Within my community, I have been sought out by people, including my Rabbi, to help resolve disputes where great sensitivity, creativity and discretion is needed.. What is most rewarding to me is when couples who have not been able to communicate for years, are given the tools through mediation to learn how to resolve disputes themselves and to begin to learn how to parent together as they are living apart.

Firm: Law and Mediation Office of Oran E. Kaufman
Practice Areas: Mediation
In 1994, I founded Amherst Mediation Services. My decision to offer mediation as an alternative to the traditional litigation system stemmed from my years of experience in the Probate and Family Court and in particular my concern that in many ways the court system was not the most efficient and best equipped system for handling family crisis such as divorce. Mediation offers participants more control over their own destiny and works to increase rather than discourage communication. Mediation is also far cheaper and often far quicker than traditional litigation. However, mediation is not appropriate in every situation. I continue to provide my clients with legal services. In my capacity as an attorney I provide services which are professional, courteous and sensitive to my clients' financial needs, emotional needs and family situation.. In my ongoing effort to provide my clients with the widest range possible of solutions that meets their needs, in 2004 began offering collaborative law as yet another alternative approach to resolving divorces and other domestic relations issues. In the collaborative law model, I represent my clients just as I would in the traditional litigation approach. The primary difference however is that both lawyers and both clients sign a contract that the matter will be handled without resorting to the courts to resolve disputes. If a client decides to utilize the courts during the divorce process, both attorneys must withdraw and both clients need to retain new attorneys.. I now focus my practice almost exclusivley on helping clients through mediation. I offer services througout Hampshire, Hampden, Franklin, Berkshire and Worcester counties including such towns as Amherst. Northampton. Springfield, Pittsfield and Worcester.
