A Different Approach to Mediation...
Creating Solutions That Work!
Welcome to Mediation,ink where resolution means more than just reaching a settlement—it means creating outcomes where all parties genuinely walk away satisfied with their results.
What Sets Our Approach Apart
Unlike traditional mediation that focuses primarily on reaching any agreement, my practice centers on a different philosophy: true success occurs when parties leave the mediation table not just with a resolution, but with confidence that they've made the right decision for their situation.
This means:​
-
Taking the time to understand what really matters to each party
-
Exploring creative solutions that address underlying interests, not just stated positions
-
Ensuring agreements are sustainable and realistic for long-term success
-
Maintaining focus on preserving relationships and dignity throughout the process
Experience
That Makes the Difference
With over 21 years of litigation experience, I bring a unique perspective to mediation that bridges the gap between legal expertise and collaborative problem-solving. My extensive background in the courtroom has given me deep insight into what happens when disputes escalate, which fuels my passion for helping parties find better solutions before reaching that point.
​
As Principal of Mediation, ink and a volunteer mediator with the Los Angeles County Superior Courts through the Center for Conflict Resolution, I have dedicated my practice to one fundamental belief: successful mediation isn't just about settling— it's about creating agreements that parties feel genuinely good about.
