Divorce Mediation, Family Mediation & Interpersonal Conflict

Interview with mediator Paul Merlyn

Mediation: Guidance to Make Informed Choices

If you’ve ever faced a divorce, custody dispute, or other interpersonal conflict, you probably experienced pain during and perhaps after the conflict resolved. Conflict becomes even more painful when we attempt to resolve it through adversarial means. These include threats, passive-aggressive behaviors such as refusal to talk about contentious issues, and the inherently adversarial process of litigation.

New Resolution provides divorce mediation, custody mediation, and interpersonal conflict resolution in several locations throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Unlike adversarial approaches, which represent conflict as a contest, mediation approaches conflict as a problem to be solved with the help of a professional mediator. Fair and impartial, we’ll guide you to a settlement using a proven problem-solving process in which you’ll attack the problem, not each other. We also provide custom services for clients who've already reached substantive agreements but need help completing their resolution process.

Mediation won’t dispel the loss, anger, hurt, or frustration that you may feel when conflict enters a personal relationship. But it will transform the way you resolve the issues in dispute while significantly reducing both the emotional pain and the financial toll of a more adversarial approach to conflict.

Mediation: Empowerment to Create Equitable Agreements

Welcome to New Resolution. We believe that our problem-solving approach is the better way to settle disputes. Conflict needn’t be debilitating. When approached as a problem, it's an opportunity for change, an opportunity for growth, and an opport-unity to learn.
