Who needs this?

You may benefit from mediation if you:



  • Are in a partnership "divorce" and need to split assets or clients without destroying the company's reputation.


  • Have a vendor or client who is interpreting a specific clause in a contract differently than you are.


  • Are facing a payment dispute where the cost of a lawyer would exceed the amount of money actually in question.


  • Value the long-term relationship with a business partner and don't want an adversarial court battle to end the professional bond

Why Choose Mediation?


The Golden Rule of Mediation: It is best suited for those who want control over the outcome. In court, a judge decides your fate; in mediation, you decide the resolution.

Faqs

Frequently asked questions

  • What constitutes a contract dispute suitable for mediation?

    Mediation is ideal for disagreements involving breach of contract, differing interpretations of "fine print" or service clauses, and payment disputes. It is especially effective when the cost of hiring a lawyer would exceed the dollar amount in question, or when both parties want to fulfill the original intent of the agreement rather than just paying damages.

  • Can mediation help if we have a payment dispute with a vendor or client?

    Absolutely. Many payment disputes stem from a breakdown in communication or a disagreement over deliverables. As a neutral third party, I help both sides review the documentation and reach a financial settlement that avoids the high costs and public nature of a civil lawsuit.

  • How does mediation help when business partners are "divorcing"?

    When partners decide to split, the existing contracts and asset agreements can be complex. Mediation provides a structured environment to divide assets, clients, and responsibilities fairly. This protects the company's reputation and ensures a cleaner break than an adversarial court battle.

  • What is the advantage of a mediated settlement over a court judgment?

    In a contract case, a judge's ruling is final and often rigid. In mediation, you have the flexibility to create customized resolutions—such as restructured payment plans or adjusted service terms—that a court wouldn't typically offer. Plus, the process remains entirely confidential.

  • Is mediation available for contracts signed outside of Kansas?

    Yes. While I am a Kansas Supreme Court Approved mediator, contract disputes often involve parties in different locations. I conduct sessions via Zoom, making it possible to resolve interstate contract disagreements efficiently without the need for travel.

  • What should I have ready for our first contract mediation session?

    You should be prepared to discuss the specific clauses in question and have a clear idea of your desired outcome. Bringing the relevant contracts, email correspondence, and any invoices will help us move through the initial assessment and into the negotiation phase quickly.
