After going through a divorce with young children in the 1990s, I understand how tough this process can be. It can leave you feeling lost, anxious, and alone.

I'd love to connect and see if our approach can bring you the support and healing you need during this difficult time.

Leslie
Meet Leslie
I highly recommend Leslie for anyone considering mediation. She has a great ability to navigate the emotional aspects of the sometimes difficult conversations, paired with strong financial skills to structure a fair and equitable outcome.
Client
Client Success Stories
Working with Leslie, while not under the easiest of circumstances, was a very positive experience. We were able to meet only a couple times, worked through things very efficiently, and Leslie was very diligent to ensure everybody had a clear and accurate picture of the agreement. Leslie presented us with an engagement that was tailored to our needs, and kept costs very affordable. I would recommend her to anybody in need of such services.
Client
I watched as Leslie walked with a close friend as he was walking through a divorce. Her process takes something so hard and lightens the load - they went from breaking to healing in huge ways financially and emotionally on their new road. They healed in the process, so did their kids; this is the road I wish for anyone I care about who walks through this type of life change.
