What is ADR Mediation?

ADR mediation, or Alternative Dispute Resolution, is a collaborative way to settle divorce without going to court. Unlike traditional divorces that involve lengthy legal battles, ADR mediation focuses on open discussions led by a neutral mediator.

This process is private, faster, and less expensive. It helps couples create fair agreements while avoiding conflict. The benefits include saving time and money, maintaining confidentiality, and reducing emotional stress for everyone involved.

I won the lottery in divorce.

I am the .001%

97% of divorce does not go to trial  and of the 3% that do go to trial only 1% of that 3% goes to the appellate court!

Well, that was ME.

I personally endured an 8.5 year fully litigated case that included a 12 day trial that took place over 9 months and after all that living hell…(please excuse my french)

there was a FOUR year state supreme appellate court process.

It cost a TON of money, years of my life tied up in court and it nearly destroyed me and my family.

the funny thing during this time I could barely help myself but time and time again other’s reached out to ME for help..

I called my attorney Marty (gutta remember I was born in Boston)

and told him what happening.

I asked him if I should go to law school…
he smiled and said you know Paulette you think like a judge act like a lawyer and feel like a therapist you owe it to give back and help people you my dear have experienced what 99% of people never will… that experience gives you the depth and the breath of the entire divorce process
