Preparing For Your Mediation
Why Choose Mediation?
Embracing The Future Starts With Today’s Decisions
When your family law problem requires legal intervention, it is natural to be worried, concerned and even scared. Your legal choices may seem abstract, but they have a real impact on your daily life and your ability to move on. Now is not the time to try to handle this problem by yourself.
Turn to me, attorney Lisa Taylor, when tensions and stress levels are running high. I am an experienced lawyer and court-approved mediator serving clients across Michigan. I am here to help you vocalize your needs and explore solutions through mediation, so you can begin your new future with a fresh perspective.
I have experience helping couples mediate disputes related to parenting time, custody, child support, spousal support, tax concerns, property division, including high asset cases, and other issues. Let me help you resolve these issues in a way that will work for you and your family.
Understanding The Difference Between Litigation And Pre-Filing Mediation
Litigation and pre-filing mediation offer fundamentally different paths for resolving divorce disputes.
Litigation is costly, time-consuming and emotionally taxing. Attorneys take control of the case and judges decide the legal issues in dispute. You have very little control over the process or the decision-making, and the court process can take up to a year. In addition, personal details revealed in court become part of the public legal record.
In contrast, pre-filing mediation is more affordable, private, collaborative and much quicker. This approach allows parties to retain control over decisions and work toward mutually satisfying outcomes. It is common for parties participating in mediation to report feeling less stress than those engaged in litigation and to have fewer disputes post divorce.

Meet Lisa
I earned my law degree from the University of Michigan over 35 years ago, because I wanted to help people in dispute.
In 1999, I experienced my own divorce and the emotional turmoil it created for me and my children. That experience led me to complete training to become a civil mediator in Michigan. However, I did not put that training to widespread use immediately, as I was practicing law for a successful litigation firm.
That use of my legal skills was not personally fulfilling. I recognized that litigating disputes more often than not is a lose-lose proposition. I decided to complete additional training in family law mediation and left that firm to start my own practice in 2008, Taylor-Made Solutions, PLLC.
My focus on mediation has brought me a great deal more job satisfaction because I see how it helps my clients navigate the divorce process more successfully, with less emotional distress and at significantly less expense. Serving as a neutral third party with a thorough knowledge of Michigan family law statutes and case law, I am able to empower both parties in a divorce so they can retain more control over the outcome and move forward with their lives.
