Consistent with his belief that quick, affordable resolutions to family law matters are generally preferable to long, expensive, drawn-out litigation, Andy is a huge proponent of mediation, and it is required in both Whitman County and Asotin County prior to going to trial. 

With over two decades of family law experience, Andy is uniquely qualified to assist the parties in achieving this. 

What is Mediation?

The mediation process involves both opposing parties spending part of a day with a neutral mediator, usually in separate rooms, to attempt to resolve some or all of their issues out of court.  The work of a good mediator involves listening to both parties’ perspectives and trying to achieve a compromise to allow them to move on with their lives.
