My mediation experience

Julia was our mediation attorney . I can say that through your this difficult process, Julia was composed, calm, professional and guided us well . This helped us make sound decisions during the process . Julia had showed us that mediation is the way to go when people are already going through diff...icult time in their lives . Julia's knowledge and professionalism were evident through out. We did not know a lot of information when we started the process . Julia has explained every step with details and what to expect from start to finish. I recommend Julia to anyone who is looking to go with mediation !!!

Divorce Mediation

Julia actually came to my rescue twice. The first time, I was fortunate enough to stumble across her website while looking for divorce mediation. We did not have the time or money for court battles; we just needed someone to insert some sense and sanity into what is already a tricky and painful proce...ss. Julia was able to make our divorce process simple and straightforward, and we both felt like we were heard! Four years later, I contacted Julia again to help me with the next intimidating process of amending the divorce agreement. Again, I felt like she did her conscientious best to humanize and streamline the process (and save me money!) with her compassion, quick thinking, and thorough attention to detail. And as a bonus: she answered my panicked emails in a timely and kindly fashion.
