Frequently asked questions
-
We provide neutral mediation for divorce, parenting, family, neighbor, small-claims, and other civil disputes. We also offer one-on-one court support to help people get organized, prepare questions, and better understand the process ahead. We do not offer legal advice or prepare legal documents.
-
Schedule a free consultation to tell us a little about your situation and ask questions. We’ll help you understand your options and whether mediation or court support may be the right next step.
-
A mediator guides the conversation but does not make decisions for the participants. We help identify issues, balance participation, clarify concerns, and explore practical options while you remain in control of any agreement.
-
Yes, disagreement is usually why people seek mediation in the first place. Mediation is possible when both people can participate safely, share necessary information, and make a good-faith effort to consider possible solutions.

-
Mediation is a neutral process for two or more people who want help working toward shared decisions. Court support is one-on-one assistance for someone who wants help organizing information, preparing questions, and approaching an unfamiliar court process with greater clarity.
-
Mediation is designed to provide a private setting for discussion, but confidentiality rules and exceptions vary by jurisdiction and circumstance. At the beginning of mediation, we will explain the confidentiality terms that apply, and an attorney can answer questions about your legal situation.
-
We offer both in-person and remote options, depending on the situation and the participants’ needs. Contact us to ask about scheduling, and available session formats.
-
You can schedule a free consultation directly or send us a message through the website. Reaching out is an opportunity to ask questions and does not commit you or anyone else to mediation.
-
A mediator does not replace an attorney or provide legal advice. You may consult an attorney before, during, or after mediation to understand your rights, receive individual legal guidance, or review a proposed agreement.

-
Begin by listing the decisions you need to make, gathering the information you already have, and writing down your priorities and questions. You do not need to have everything organized or know what the final agreement should be before you begin.

-
The total cost depends on the complexity of the dispute, the preparation required, and the number and length of the sessions. Contact us for a free initial consultation, where we will clearly explain fees, payment structure, and what you can expect before you decide to proceed.
-
There is no standard timeline because every situation is different. The number of sessions depends on the issues involved, the information available, and how quickly the participants are able to consider options and make decisions.
-
Amy is warm, direct, fair-minded, and highly organized. She creates space for difficult emotions while keeping the conversation grounded, respectful, and moving toward the decisions that need to be made.
-
Strong emotions are normal and can reveal what matters most beneath a disagreement. Your mediator helps by establishing a safe and balanced space for emotional topics. This can include pacing the conversation to give appropriate room to process, helping to clarify what is being expressed, or suggesting a break so everyone can continue participating thoughtfully.

Not always. Tell Amy privately if you are afraid of the other participant, feel pressured to agree, cannot speak freely, or have concerns about domestic violence, coercion, or hidden information so she can assess whether safeguards or another process may be needed.
