Explain the issues in our form or skip to a conflict assessment with a professional mediator. We learn more and help you determine next steps. We can either continue supporting you alone, or initiate mediation to support everyone.
If mediation fits, we educate everyone about the process and answer any questions. If they refuse, we can continue helping you privately. Once everyone agrees to participate, mediation begins.
We meet virtually (phone or zoom) and work around your schedule, day or night. We help you understand your options and think through how solutions would work. We bring parties together as needed.
Parties make all decisions. Everyone is free to have an attorney present or review agreements. We get as detailed as you need. Solutions are custom built by you and for you, so signing is easy when the time comes.
Mediation is your last chance to apply the brakes and problem solve before court. Our case studies prove it.
We listen to everyone, ask detailed questions to reveal opportunities, and let you decide what solutions make sense. Often parties agree on payment plans, graceful move-outs (without the sheriff) or another resolution. We structure and guide the discussion. Our 5-star reviews prove top quality.
Sometimes it's a disruption. Life gets in the way, and rent falls behind. Often that's where avoidance happens, hoping tomorrow will bring a solution. When things are overwhelming, it's hard not to shut down.
Other times it's a dispute. If repairs aren't done, tenants might withhold rent. That adds frustration and now both sides feel the pressure.
Mediators are a calm, neutral voice. We establish trust because we have nothing to hide, and no finger on the scale. We quickly understand what's happened and get to the root. Then we help create a realistic payment plan, connect to repayment resources, or outline an agreed transition.
Landlords and tenants often disagree about damages vs wear-and-tear. Both sides often feel like the other is trying to 'get away' with something. Distrust quickly adds frustration, bringing the process to a dead stop.
Sometimes the process is unclear and confusing, or simple mistakes get made. These don't have to become lawsuits (but without a neutral voice to help problem solve, they often do). Once people start spending money, they lock in and refuse to budge.
Mediators guide neutral review of the evidence and process. We help everyone see solutions that don't require judges. We're not for or against anyone -- so when the process generates a solution, parties don't automatically distrust it. We eliminate distrust to get things done.
Like this case we resolved in 59 minutes.
Sometimes the lease is silent about who's responsible. Or worse, it conflicts with informal agreements or local regulations.
Other times what one side sees as a reasonable time frame is totally unacceptable to the other. Delays add to frustration. Miscommunications make it worse. Add in other life stressors, and the whole thing can get blown out of proportion.
Mediators know you're the one who has to live with decisions -- so we don't make them for you. Instead, we listen to everyone to help chart a path forward, one that everyone can live with. We clarify obligations, create a structure for future decisions, and help nail down the details.
All of these can create resentment, leading to exchanges that go from 0 to 100, getting heated fast.
This one became a lawsuit, but we settled it in 59 minutes.
Mediators come in without taking sides or making assumptions. We ask questions, listen to everyone, and help piece together where the confusion happened and where the issues are. We give over control when everything is clear and it's time to build solutions.
Small issues left unchecked don't resolve themselves. When they get worse, they get harder (and more expensive to fix). See how early intervention with mediation makes all the difference for everyone.
No matter the issue, we have the tools and experience to bring calm and clarity so everyone can resolve and move on.
Our 5-star reviews prove our top quality.
‘Rachel’ was abandoned by her husband, the sole bread winner holding all financial control. After we stepped in to mediate, it was clear repayment was out of the question. We connected her with resources and helped coordinate a graceful exit, preventing the losses from a legal eviction.
Without mediation, the landlord had no choice but to evict, slowing the move out while adding more expenses. Mediation re-established communication so a voluntary exit became clear and actionable.
After the moveout, ‘Chris’ submitted his paperwork but never got his deposit—so he sued. The landlord lawyered up and spent months preparing… only to settle in 59 minutes in mediation with us. Turns out, there was a simple admin error.
Without mediation, the case would have gone to trial, costing even more time and money (litigation is where lawyers charge top dollar). We stepped in before the case went to trial, preventing a small error from becoming a full-blown legal case to limit the cash bleed on court.
A family renting a modest 2-bedroom faced a sudden 30% rent increase after new management took over. Their original lease was missing, repairs were unresolved, and $1,500 in unpaid maintenance work added tension. With eviction looming and legal costs rising, both sides were at risk.
Through mediation landlord tenant services, both parties avoided escalation and worked toward a practical agreement that addressed repairs, compensation, and rent adjustments.
Most conflicts don’t need police, attorneys, or a judge. They need structured conversation, a professional neutral, and practice solutions that make sense for everyone. We know because we've done it hundreds of times. As long as everyone is willing to participate, solutions are within reach.
Most cases take 4 hours or less of session time. We move quickly to meet with all parties and get the process started. We adjust to your schedule, and can meet with parties separately or jointly to keep things moving forward. Our goal: resolve the issue fast, without dragging things out.
Yes. And most often they do once they see the benefits of mediation compared to the high costs and stress of court. The good news? Once everyone agrees, it means they show up more eager to look for solutions (and find them).
A typical 4-hour session is $1500 ($750 per party). The average attorney is $500/hr, so mediation is much more affordable. We also offer a sliding scale and payment plans. After all is said and done, mediation often saves landlords and tenants more than it costs.
Yes, agreements can be made legally binding and enforceable. Once signed, your agreement can be filed with the court, giving it the same weight as a court order.
This is sometimes the first reaction, but often not the last. We can still help with:
Reaching out on your behalf to educate them on the process and benefits (sometimes they refuse, then change their mind once they can’t find a better way)
Offer you conflict coaching to improve how to approach the situation (pro tip: this alone is often enough to resolve many issues)
You still benefit. Even without settlement, mediation narrows the issues and creates partial agreement. It also cools things down. If court action is needed later on, proof of mediation speeds up the legal process. Best case, you resolve everything. Worst case, you save time and reduce complexity and stress.
