At Transforming Conflict LLC, the goal is to help you attack the source of the conflict, not each other. Studies demonstrate that parties who are active and feel empowered in resolving their conflict do better emotionally, financially and legally than those who delegate responsibility to the courts.
I provide divorce, adoption, eldercare, family business and other family-related mediation services through a proven problem-solving process.
Mediation minimizes the hostility and misunderstandings that couples experience following separation - whether they're heterosexual, gay, or even unmarried. It also helps parents with minor children build a foundation for a healthy co-parenting relationship even after their relationship as a couple has ended - and spares the children the trauma of an acrimonious divorce.
The issues I address in marital or domestic partnership mediation include dividing marital assets, allocating community debt, setting child support and maintenance, and establishing the parenting plan.
