Tell me about the process… what happens when somebody says, “yes let’s use a divorce mediator“. Tell me what you do.
Bill Leininger – Divorce Mediation Attorney – Richmond County, NY
98% of the time that’s as a result of that free half-hour consultation which is either face-to-face or on a zoom video because sometimes, I have clients in different states different parts of the country.
But in any event, once the people have met me and talked to me and I’ve met them and talked to them, we get a good feel for each other. Then I tell you, go home and think about it. If one of you wants to use me and the other one doesn’t, can’t. I have a policy for the last 31 years that once I’ve met a couple, I will not represent one of those people.
The only way I’m going to represent them is if they both want to use me, okay? So, and I tell people, if one of you thinks I’m good and the other one doesn’t think that you don’t want to use me for some reason, then look further because I’m not going to represent one of you on an adversarial basis.
