Sawyer Mediation was great!

I found Chris and his staff at Sawyer Mediation to be amazing to work with. Chris is extremely knowledgeable but also very fair, compassionate and thoughtful when it comes to handling highly sensitive cases such as divorce. I thought he did a great job in keeping the mediation conversation on the obj...ective track while also trying to get all parties to see all sides of the coin. Additionally, I found Chris and his staff to be very informed when it comes to same-sex marriages and dissolution of such marriages and the laws that define them. He and his staff deliver cutting edge work that is unlike anything else you can find.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
