Conflict Resolution Services
At Stewart, Melvin & Frost, we offer forms of alternative dispute resolution designed to help clients resolve conflicts efficiently and with less stress than traditional litigation. Each approach is tailored to the unique needs of the parties involved, allowing for flexible and effective outcomes. Â
What Is Mediation?
Mediation is a form of alternative dispute resolution in which a neutral facilitator works with two or more parties to find common areas of agreement. Because mediation is collaborative and non-binding, it allows parties to maintain control over the final outcome. This approach is often ideal for family law matters, business disputes, and other situations where preserving relationships is important.Â
Â
Collaborative Family Practice
Stewart, Melvin & Frost also is a leader in Interdisciplinary Collaborative Family Practice.
Another form of alternative dispute resolution, Collaborative Family Practice is an innovative approach to settling divorce cases and other family disputes. It discourages the potentially devastating effects of some traditional legal proceedings by allowing participants to avoid court, save time and money, and focus more on their children.
Utilizing a team approach, the practice goes beyond mediation by bringing together attorneys for both parties, a financial consultant and a mental health professional to work toward a fair and balanced resolution.
