We are Maryland divorce mediators providing effective, compassionate, and cost-effective mediation services.
We mediate because we believe in:
Your divorce can be handled with dignity and thoughtfulness.
Your children deserve peaceful homes and hopeful parents. Mediation provides one of the best opportunities for you to begin cooperative co-parenting.
Your divorce should be financially manageable without depleting your retirement or college savings.
Your family shouldn’t be ensnared by an adversarial system that encourages the escalation of the conflict and deepens discouragement.
Who are we?
We are Maryland divorce mediators providing cost-effective and compassionate family mediation for separation and divorce, post-divorce disputes, and other family conflicts.
