Style & Approach

Maybe a short paragraph on how they like to mediate in their own words or a few sentences on the sentiments they bring to the mediation arena. This will add a personal touch which may make some website users feel like the mediator is more trustworthy or closer to the mediating party’s personality type. 

There is nothing that cannot be solved if we set our heart to it. I strongly believe that if two parties decide to sit together to resolve a dispute, they already have the spirit to walk away with a solution. Finding common ground is the ultimate goal for any mediation. I will leave no stone unturned when I am helping you to resolve the dispute you have.
