About & Mediation Philosophy

Neutral Profile

Need to get a dispute resolved fairly and efficiently and without the type of adversarial confrontation found at Court? Try arbitration. Stefanie has had six years of arbitration experience and is licensed attorney. Even in cases where one party could go to court if he/she did not like the outcome, there has been only one such case that went to court. Fairness, impartiality, ability to understand the law, good listening skills and giving people a chance to be heard help achieve these outcomes. I have a law degree and a doctorate in history. Although I am licensed in the state of NM, I practice only alternative dispute resolution methods and collaborative law. I have had over 400 hours of training of all sorts regarding substantive, ethical and methodological approaches/practices. My background allows me to understand that if people can’t communicate, there will be strife, and I know that facilitation of all kinds is more humane and humanistic than the traditional legal process.
