client reviews

“Sara has my highest praise as a mediator. As a practitioner/mediator myself I do not say that lightly. Too often mediations devolve into shuttle diplomacy, iterating most predictably toward a mid-point. Sara prefers instead to get to the heart of matters. She is wise without being arrogant, with a perfect blend of toughness and empathy. Sara works toward a deal in every party’s interests. We resolved a complex employment law claim in a single day including a fully drafted settlement agreement.”

“Sara was straightforward and direct as a mediator. She was candid in her assessment of risk and provided thoughtful and impactful suggestions throughout the mediation.  She worked hard to make sure that a solution that worked for both parties was achieved.“

“I had the pleasure of co-mediating with Jess on a number of mediations. Any top-notch mediator knows how to read people and understand the elements of risk to the parties. Jess has excellent skills in both these departments. I highly recommend Jess.“
