REVIEWS:

“I thoroughly enjoyed the Family Law course that I recently took with you Hilary and found it both useful and informative. The videos that were shown interviewing various Family law professionals and their thoughts and perspectives on a number of family law issues were especially helpful and quite an eye opener. Having been out of the practice of Family Law for several years, I found this to be a fantastic review of the most recent and relevant areas of debate in family law. I would highly recommend this course.” – KK

A Place for Mediation Inc.

A Place for Mediation Inc. was established in 1991 from a growing demand for mediation. At first, their primary focus was culturally sensitive family mediation. Focusing primarily on multi-cultural and blended families. They were so successful in this arena that they were published in the Globe and Mail in the late 1980s. As time progressed, their services were expanded to include other areas of mediation by request. At this time there was a demand to mediate employment and estate matters. Today they have evolved into a full-service practice providing specialized mediation, arbitration, and investigations, as well as training in the fields of family, business or contract, employment, construction, condominium, estate, personal injury, elder, child protection, workplace, and sports amongst other areas.

“As many people have already stated in their reviews, Laura and Eva are fantastic to deal with. As hard of a time as it is to go through, they are with you every step of the way and explain everything in plain English.
They are always there to answer any questions throughout the process and it’s all done in a very cost effective manner. If you are unfortunate to have to go through this process… There really is no other way unless you want to give all of your money to the lawyers.” – RB

Reflective Mediation

Reflective Mediation helps separating couples, individuals, and families resolve conflict and improve communication. They facilitate conversations to settle disputes in the present and prevent them from escalating further in the future by ensuring participants actually hear what one another is saying and understand one another interest. Through mindful communication, they help people understand one another needs and often to more deeply appreciate their own. For them, understanding builds bridges where reaching mutually beneficial solutions become easier. This way, the process is not about having someone telling them what to do, it’s about listening and becoming empowered to reach an agreement, settling disputes in a way that satisfies the interests of all parties involved.
