Most mediations conclude within one full day. Complex matters may require additional time.

Sessions may be held in person at a mutually agreed upon location or virtually via Zoom.

Yes. Mediation and arbitration are private processes. Recording is not permitted.

No, I am happy to assist with private disputes, as well as cases in the court system.

As a neutral and impartial third party, I do not provide legal advice. If you are represented by an attorney, your attorney will advise you. If you are not represented by an attorney, you are encouraged to consult independent counsel.

If you are represented by an attorney, your attorney(s) will prepare a formal agreement for your signatures. If neither party is represented by an attorney, then upon request, I will prepare a document outlining your agreed terms for you or an attorney to prepare a formal agreement for your signatures.

In court ordered mediations, I will prepare a report of impasse and file it with the court; your case will then proceed through the court process. In private mediations, the process concludes without settlement.
