Amy L. Cox Gruendel

Through Resolution Mediation Services, LLC (“Resolution”), I handle a variety of civil matters – business litigation, basic contract disputes, employment law matters, some personal injury claims, and a fair bit of landlord/tenant cases. 

Lawyers call me for civil disputes that don't warrant attention from the more well-known or more experienced (and more expensive) mediators in town.  My rates reflect the smaller nature of the matters I handle. 

Lawyers also call me for matters in which at least one party is pro se.   The ethical complexities of handling cases involving pro se litigants cause many mediators to avoid taking on such cases at all, especially if the pro se party also happens to be indigent.  I routinely mediate cases involving pro se and/or indigent parties and am quite comfortable doing so. 

Still other lawyers call me because they like my approach.  I work hard to bring a feeling of closure not just to the lawsuit, but to the emotions and upset that accompany any conflict.  Addressing the emotional element has been healing for the parties, and has proven to be the most efficient and effective way to bring people to a settlement.  Sounds hokey?  It works.

Resolution is also committed to bringing healing to our community. Since its inception, Resolution has donated one third of all mediation fees collected to Pat's Place and Safe Alliance. These agencies assist victims of physical and sexual abuse, many of them children.  This business model has been well received by the public, as it allows mediation participants to help our community simply by selecting Resolution as their ADR source.
