Why Choose Jerald A. Kessler Professional Mediation?

Many people do not consider mediation when it comes to divorce or other legal matters. They may be wary of whether mediation will actually work out for them. It's normal to have these concerns, especially if you have never been in this situation before. 

With my decades of experience, can address these worries and provide a comfortable, safe environment in which  to resolve your legal matters. Going to court is always an option, but disputes can usually be resolved in mediation, although there are obviously no guarantees. In court, you also leave the final decision up to the judge, which can often leave both parties dissatisfied. 

Through mediation, I facilitate productive discussions regarding all important issues and keep the conversation on track. As a neutral third party, I will not push for either side's opinions. The goal is to help you and the other party reach a mutually acceptable agreement on your own.
