How this firm works

Trusts & estates mediation
National ADR panels rarely specialize in trusts and estates disputes. This firm does, privately and when a judge directs parties to mediate.
The work is confidential and conversational. Suzanne facilitates; she does not draft the settlement, so families stay architects of their own agreement.
