Mediation / Arbitration
Mediation is a collaborative process where a neutral third party helps disputing parties communicate effectively, negotiate solutions, and reach a mutually acceptable agreement. Arbitration allows that neutral party to issue binding awards.
Mediator / Arbiter
I am now serving as a mediator and arbiter of family law disputes in Colorado Springs. At this time, I am only working with represented parties and only on a limited number of cases. Please contact me to discuss options.
Mediation
After ten years practicing law, I can apply my experience to your case to help you and your team solve the problem in a way that everyone can live with. One of the best ways to keep control over your outcome is to negotiate rather than give a third party decision-making power.
Arbitration
But sometimes, you cannot come to an agreement, and you need someone to make a decision for you. And sometimes the court system, either because of speed or expertise, is not the right method. Given my history with difficult financial and high-conflict custody cases, I can help resolve the toughest cases.
Temporary Orders / Emergency Requests
It can be hard to get into court for quick problem-solving requests. If you need help solving your problem now and cannot wait, have your lawyer contact my office to see if we can arbitrate temporary orders and move your case forward efficiently and compassionately.
Judicial Experience
My experience both as a long-time family lawyer and part-time judge make me a great fit to help resolve your case as a professional neutral.
