Why Choose Mediation?

Parenting Coordinator

A PC is an attorney or mental health provider, appointed by the Court, to help parents navigate their court-ordered parenting plan. A PC will troubleshoot custody/visitation issues as they arise, utilizing a mediation/arbitration model that allows parents to avoid returning to court for further litigation.

How can a PC Help?

Stacy was exactly what we needed during our divorce. She put the needs of our child first, and was very even-handed in dealing with our situation. She was available whenever we had pressing issues, and now, a year out from our decree, she remains an invaluable resource.

It was my first time seeking out legal help, and I felt overwhelmed and intimidated by other attorneys I spoke with over the phone. Annabel and everyone in the office made me feel welcome and comfortable during a very difficult time.

Annabel Murray, has been such an amazing lawyer. It was my first time seeking out an lawyer and I really had no clue what to do or what to expect. Annabel and her staff, completely made me feel at ease with my custody case.
