“Thank you very much for all your help. You were right there with us helping us to sort through all the complexities. “
“We appreciate that we were able to go through this process and still keep our positive relationships in tact.”
“Through our long partnership of 24 years, we never learned to hear each other’s ideas or to solve problems together. Mediation taught us the art of problem solving and enabled us to stay in business together. Here’s to 20 more years”
“I wanted to sell the family business. Whoever said success makes for happiness? My children were fighting. My wife blamed me. Without mediation there would have been no business and maybe even no family.”
“I’m grateful for the guidance and problem-solving techniques we learned at CMDR. We’re doing business as a family again.”
“Your guidance and professional expertise continues to be a source for which I am very grateful!”
Lynne Halem is “quite talented…with integrity, bottom-line smarts, organized and task oriented.”
“I recommend CMDR to anyone who wants to close a long-term marriage with dignity and fairness.”
“What I thought about during mediation was how the kids can and would be affected. Coming from a divorced family myself, I understood what was going through the kids’ minds, and I knew what I didn’t want for my children. It’s all about give and take with a resolution at the end of the process. Thanks again to everyone at CMDR for your kindness and professionalism during this difficult process.”
“I entered mediation without any understanding of our finances. It’s amazing what I’ve learned and how adept I’ve become at managing my own money.”
“People had warned me against mediation. They spoke of the extent of the estate, that my husband was financially adept and an expert negotiator. Yet, I ended up with an agreement that far surpassed even my fancy lawyer’s predictions. In the end, my husband truly cared about my well-being and that of the children. The mediator’s expertise in [the] financial areas made me feel protected and made my husband reassured that we would not be misled. I would recommend CMDR to anyone.”
“Mediation was a place where we were equal and respected. My voice mattered. His voice mattered. And our concerns were heard.”
“Going through mediation and divorce was one of the most difficult and emotional times of my life. I am thankful that my husband and I were adult enough to face one another and come to a mutual agreement. Through the process we each had to give and take which will enable us to continue to be able to come up with future negotiations later. As parents we will have to be in contact with one another for many years – they should be happy and good.”
“Restraining orders, court hearings, and the like were draining our pocketbooks and our energy. You are a miracle worker. We have an agreement that is fair to both of us and, best of all, we are friends again. Who would have thought?”
“I am continuing on my journey in rebuilding my life. I am writing for two reasons. My first reason is to thank you very much for providing such considerate and helpful input of our mediation agreement. I really feel that CMDR guided me in making good decisions. I feel financially secure, and that I can provide … well for the girls. I would recommend your company to anyone who asks.”
