Dear Lisa,

I just want to thank you for all of your help.  As you know, we both had lawyers battling for us and we both got sick of what it was doing to us and to our kids.   You made us so happy that we chose mediation instead.  We accomplished in just a few meetings what we had been deadlocked about for months with our lawyers.  And now we are able to talk to each other about the kids and solve problems that come up instead of assuming the worst about each other and just fighting all the time.

Having made the difficult decision to divorce after a long marriage, my husband and I were committed to resolving our differences in a respectful, civil manner.  We did not want the process to dissolve into a bitter, angry, drawn-out fight with one another.  We researched options, and discovered that divorce mediation was the path that we wanted to take.  As our mediator, Lisa Taylor made the complicated process of divorcing easy to understand.  She made sure that each of us was heard, that our concerns were addressed, and that both of us had helped to create a balanced settlement with one another.  She has made this difficult process less painful by giving us a level of control in determining what we wanted the outcome to look like.

I was very impressed with Lisa’s approach to the mediation process.  Having never been through a divorce before, it was comforting to lean on her experience.  She was methodical and logical in the way she organized the individual topics that needed to be negotiated and thoughtful in how she offered input.  She was very clear about her neutral role in the process and never provided advice that was inappropriate to either party.  She was an effective facilitator and kept both parties focused while remaining sensitive to the strong emotions associated with some of the topics.  At the end of the process I feel like we came out with not only a fair and equitable separation agreement but a trusted partner to call on if the future requires it!

I have friends who have spent thousands of dollars and endured a great deal of emotional stress and anxiety while attempting to get a divorce using the typical adversarial approach. My ex-husband and I agreed that it was in our best interest and the best interest of our child to resolve our issues amicably. For this reason we chose mediation and Lisa Taylor.  From our first meeting Lisa was unbiased, knowledgeable and professional. She helped us navigate through the emotional, financial and practical nuances of separating our lives while providing valuable advice based on her many years of experience in the field. While our family structure has changed, we have emerged from divorce with respect for one another and a clear path of how we will interact as a family in the years ahead. I am convinced beyond any doubt, that had we not used Lisa Taylor, we would not have had such a positive outcome.

I just wanted to let you know that everything went very smoothly at court. The judge granted the motion to waive Friend of the Court and did not require us to wait the standard 6 months.

 

Thanks again for all your help and expertise!!!  This process could

have been so much more difficult (and expensive) and we really

appreciated your guidance.

Thank you for all your help over the past few months.  We are not through all of this yet, since we are moving to Dallas...but you have certainly confirmed our belief that we could work without the nastiness that is so commonly associated with divorces.  You had a nice straightforward approach to us navigating through all of the necessary steps, remained VERY objective throughout, and were a wonderful mediator in terms of your being patient yet moving things along, emotionally sensitive to hard topics, and overall very efficient.  Thank you for your help, and we will be sure to keep you posted.

I came to Lisa Taylor looking for some help with my divorce.  My now ex-wife and I were very nervous. We didn’t know what to expect. We were both pleasantly surprised! Lisa Taylor was the most professional, compassionate, and empathetic person we have ever met. She guided us through the process, explaining every step in great detail. She worked with us both on what we needed to provide and exactly what we needed to do once we got to court. She was very organized and provided me with receipts for my payments. She was very courteous and took our situation very seriously, while at the same time was very friendly and put us both at ease.

 

Divorce is not and easy thing to have to go through, but Lisa Taylor made is bearable for us…and we thank her for that.  I would recommend her services to anyone seeking mediation.

Thanks Lisa for making a painful situation go smoothly.  You seemed to help the both of us make decisions that we could both agree with.  You did a great job keeping peace that will allow us both to parent our kids without any emotional baggage regarding the divorce.  Thanks for that.
