Why Work With Us

 One of the biggest misconceptions is that you must be an attorney or judge to be a mediator, but that is not the case. While we do have former judges and attorneys on our staff, it is not our role to give legal advise or presume how your legal proceeding may go outside of mediation. We have found many legal professionals treat mediation as a steppingstone to a court date and thus, missing the point of mediation. 

Great mediators are often described as part diplomat, part psychologist, and part structural engineer. While formal statutory training teaches the rules of legal compliance, the actual art of mediation relies on a distinct blend of emotional intelligence, high-stakes process control, and tactical patience.

The elite neutrals—the ones lawyers call when a complex, high-dollar case hits a dead end—excel across several core disciplines. This is what gives us a tactical advantage over the standard legal professional that tends to see issues in black and white and not think outside the box to help come up with creative, alternative solutions
