TESTIMONIALS:

"Janice Starr is an attorney, mediator and therapist who brings to this practice unique expertise and the ability to facilitate resolution where it would otherwise be impossible!"  R. Gordon, PhD.

"Ms. Starr is amazing.  I never would have believed that we could have gotten through our divorce without a bitter court battle, but we did, and had a fair and just agreement - and we can talk to each other at my son's ballgames...something that the other divorced parents aren't always doing." T.J.-client.

"It takes a certain kind of rare person, and an exceptional professional, to put their heart and soul...whatever it takes...into helping people like Ms. Starr does."  M. Criam, client.

"Why would any rational couple who wants to keep their self-respect and their family's mental health go any other way? Janice is the best!"  B&R Carmichael, clients

Beyond Marital Disputes:

Mediation Associates of New York and New Jersey, LLC. is a full service mediation firm offering peaceful dispute resolution. We have successfully resolved by mediation matrimonial and family disputes, contract disputes, workplace issues, guardianship and wills disputes.  When we are not acting as neutrals in the mediation setting, we are attorneys giving effective representation to clients when mediation is not an option.  At Mediation Associates, we provide our clients with all of the legal information to enable them to make informed, knowledgeable decisions about their lives and maintain control over the outcome of their dispute, rather than having the court decide their future. Our clients finish their mediation here with a handshake and a sense of satisfaction rather than the bitterness and rage that can accompany adversarial court battles that expend a great deal of time, dwindle the financial resources of both sides, and engage them in the exhaustive expenditure of negative psychic energy. "Those needing resolution in the ending of their marriage, renegotiating a contract, dealing with a dispute in the workplace, or being tormented with the conflicts between family when a loved one dies, need an atmosphere of safety and unconditional regard and respect and we provide that here, so that not every issues that is "actionable" becomes a litigation. It is a rare and special environment and our clients finish with respect for the process and a sense of satisfaction for accomplishing their goal in a respectful, civil and humane manner."
