7 VerticalsAbout & Mediation Philosophy
Neutral ProfileI am a Family Law Mediator and Lawyer. I have 40 years experience as an attorney, and 25 years experience as a Family Law Mediator. I conduct private mediation sessions for parties, generally before litigation has commenced, and I have been appointed by the Circuit Court for Carroll County, Maryland, to serve as a Court Appointed Mediator. I regularly attend continuing education in the mediation field. In addition to my practice as both a private and Court appointed mediator, I practice law in the areas of Family Law, Estate Planning, and Estate Administration. Since earning my Juris Doctor degree in 1984, I have continued to attend continuing education. I am a trained mediator in the areas of Family Law, including child custody issues, child access, child support, and all monetary issues in a divorce, including property distribution, the division of pensions, and alimony. I am also a trained mediator in the fields of estate law and guardianship law. The private mediation and settlement process is completely confidential and voluntary. All discussions had in mediation are also confidential, and are not binding until the parties understanding is reduced to a written agreement and executed by both parties before a notary. Mediation can help parties avoid the excessive legal costs associated with contested litigation, and the other difficulties arising from such adversarial litigation.
