Here is what our Clients and Professionals have to say about Us
Lori Penrose
Roseann was recommended to me when I was blindly trying to find a divorce attorney I could trust. I felt very overwhelmed and didn’t know where to start. I couldn’t be happier, or more relieved with the services and guidance Roseann provided over our time in mediation. My ex husband and I were married for 27 years, four grown children, owned three properties, and lost a restaurant business to the pandemic. Our marital assets, as well as future income issues were extremely complex. We spent several sessions trying to sort out an arrangement that worked for us. That required many hours of tedious research and gathering of documents on Roseann’s part. She was caring, patient, and always stayed neutral so we both felt protected and heard. Thank you Roseann and Advanced Mediation Solutions for helping us navigate this very difficult journey. I have already recommended you to everyone I know!
Amanda Holt
I will be recommending Advanced Mediation Solutions and Roseann to everyone in need of help. Roseann is an extremely talented mediator who is kind, compassionate, and fair. She guided us through this very difficult process by giving us the knowledge and resources to to make smart decisions. Through her amazing contacts we were able to work with a mortgage broker who structured a new loan for my ex spouse so he was able to keep the house. She provided us with the name of a lawyer, who in conjunction, was able to file our final MOU with ease, saving us thousands of dollars in the process. Thank you Roseann, from the bottom of my heart. You took an impossible situation and got us through it with grace and compassion for one another. I didn’t think it possible but you got us there.

Good place to go if your willing to try medication. Roseann clearly explained the entire process and what to expect. Much less stressful and cheaper than meeting with a divorce attorney.

Carmela did a great job of letting us know what to expect, and what the role of a mediator is. I have no doubt that her help saved us time, money, and aggravation. I’d recommend her to anyone who wants to try mediation, and recommend mediation itself as well.
