A focused approach

Legal experience, business judgment, and disciplined follow-through.

Christine draws on decades of experience participating in mediations as both mediator and attorney. Her background negotiating commercial and real estate transactions provides a practical framework for understanding the legal, financial, and personal forces shaping a dispute.

01

Careful preparation

Every mediation begins with a thorough review of the facts, legal issues, and the interests of the parties. Careful preparation allows Christine to identify the issues that matter most and focus the mediation on realistic opportunities for resolution.

02

Persistent facilitation

Christine works with the parties throughout the mediation to clarify positions, test assumptions, and explore practical settlement options. When appropriate, she continues working with counsel and the parties after the session concludes because many cases resolve through continued follow-up.

03

Practical results

Successful mediation requires more than facilitating discussion. It requires patience, persistence, and sound judgment. Christine’s objective is to help the parties reach durable, practical resolutions while avoiding the uncertainty, expense, and delay of continued litigation.
