Our mediation process
01 /

Start the conversation

Share the nature of your dispute and discuss whether mediation is the right next step.

02 /

Prepare with purpose

Agree on the format, timing and terms. Provide the information needed for a focused conversation.

03 /

Find a way forward

Work through the issues with an engaged mediator who encourages practical, creative solutions.

How the consultation works

Calm, clear and
without obligation.

Request a Consultation
01 /

Share the basics

A four-step request with general information only. It takes about three minutes.

02 /

A brief conversation

Scott follows up by your preferred method to understand the situation and whether mediation fits.

03 /

Agree on next steps

If you choose to proceed, format, timing, fees and the Agreement to Mediate are confirmed first.

A consultation request is not legal advice and does not create a lawyer-client relationship or a mediation engagement. Outcomes depend on the parties; none is guaranteed.

A conversation can change the direction.

Let’s explore a constructive way forward, together.
