Who we are:

Disputes are complex. Resolution works best when expertise is shared.

Smarter Mediation is built by professionals who share a common belief: disputes are resolved best when people work smarter, not harder—and when the process serves the clients, not the individuals running it.


Our team is made up of experienced mediators, former and practicing attorneys, and professionals skilled in navigating complex, high-emotion conversations. Each member of our team is highly qualified, carefully trained in the SMART Method, and committed to guiding disputes toward fair, workable resolution.


A Team-First Approach


At Smarter Mediation, we operate as a collaborative team rather than a collection of individual practitioners. Cases are not about individual reputations or personal styles—they are about achieving the best possible outcome for the people involved.


Our intake process helps match each case with the mediator best suited to the dispute based on experience, subject matter, communication style, and availability. If a case would benefit from a different perspective, mediators collaborate behind the scenes or transition matters seamlessly—without additional fees or disruption.


Expertise Without Ego


Disputes are often layered, involving legal, emotional, relational, and practical issues all at once. Our team-based model allows us to draw on a broad range of experience and insight, leading to more thoughtful, creative, and holistic solutions than any single mediator could provide alone.


Clients never have to worry about “getting the wrong mediator.” Our responsibility is to ensure the right expertise is applied at the right time—so the focus stays where it belongs: on resolution.

Why Our Team Model Works


  • Right mediator, right case
    Each dispute is matched with the mediator best suited to its needs—not whoever happens to be available.


  • Collective expertise
    Our mediators collaborate behind the scenes, drawing on each other’s experience to develop stronger, more thoughtful solutions.


  • Flexibility without friction
    If a different perspective would help, cases can transition seamlessly—without delay or additional cost.


  • No ego, no turf
    We operate under one banner. The focus is always on resolving the dispute, not promoting individual practitioners.


  • Better outcomes for clients
    A team-based approach leads to more balanced, creative, and durable resolutions.
