Testimonials

I'm writing to thank you for your outstanding effort in mediating a settlement in this matter.  I truly believe that few mediators would have been able to bring the parties together, and that the settlement was principally attributed to your outstanding management of the mediation proceedings.  I also commend you on going way beyond the call of duty, regarding the amount of time and effort you expend.  I believe you have done these parties a great service, and I thank you.

Dear Brian,
The parties have been in litigation with each other for years. All prior attempts at mediation have failed.  In light of this unfortunate situation, I held little hope.  I have rarely been so happy to have been wrong.  In a few short hours of mediation, you changed the tone of the parties' discourse.  You helped them to talk to each other and to listen to each other's needs.  Your patience, empathy, objectivity and skill made all the difference.  Thank you for this extraordinary gift.

Mr. McDonald was perfect for this case and both my client and I were very grateful for him to handle this very complicated matter.  He was professional and a very personable mediator.  Brian demonstrated care and empathy but not overarching.  He has reestablished my faith in the system.

Hi Brian, I just wanted to sincerely thank you for all your help, and most importantly I wanted to tell you that you really made the situation very comfortable.  Your character and demeanor made the environment, the atmosphere very relaxing. I didn't think I'd smile all day, and I smiled from the second you walked in.  We had prayed for closure, and that's all we really wanted to be honest with you, was closure.  Thanks for your expertise, knowledge and your assistance in the handling of our case.
