With almost ten years of litigation experience and having settled numerous cases, I understand how disputes work and, more often, don’t work in the court process.
Having worked with people in crisis and conflict for thirty-two years as both a professional minister and attorney, I understand the frustration and pain that conflict causes. I am also trained in the underlying reasons for conflict and how to get to resolutions.
My national certification as a Professional Mediator is with NACM, National Assoc. of Certified Mediators.
