- Pre-Decree Mediation: Facilitating agreements on asset division, debt allocation, and spousal support before the divorce is finalized.
- Parenting Plans: helping parents create detailed, child-focused schedules that minimize conflict and prioritize the children's well-being.
- Co-Mediation: A unique model where clients benefit from the combined expertise of both a male and female mediator.
- Post-Decree Issues: Assisting divorced couples in resolving new disputes or modifying existing agreements without returning to court.
