Read About the Benefits of Mediation Directly from Our Clients
“This whole process was stressful from the beginning. After not really knowing what we were doing, Kaitlyn laid out a clear foundation of how to make this process as smooth as possible. I honestly fear what path our divorce could have gone down if not for being recommended Kaitlyn/mediation. While never an easy thing to do or process, I felt like Kaitlyn was sympathetic and made it as easy as possible for us.” – J.F.
“Going through this process was daunting at first, but the guidance and support I received made all the difference. The approach was thoughtful, compassionate, and truly centered on understanding my unique situation. I felt heard, supported, and confident in making the best decisions for my family. I can’t recommend their services enough to anyone looking for a structured, caring, and effective way to navigate such an important life transition.” – Stefanie
“Based on how my collaborative divorce was going, it felt like it would drag on until litigation was the only remaining option. Going to mediation with Katie completely changed the dynamic of the situation. Katie’s straightforward approach helped us get past the false perceptions that we both felt as a part of our separation and she was able to get us back on track to finalize the remaining open items. While at times uncomfortable, Katie has a way of moving the dialogue forward in a way that helps reduce the emotion of the situation and focus on the particulars that need to be addressed. I’d highly recommend mediation with Katie, either initially, or as early as possible in the process, for anyone that feels like they can’t get aligned and move forward!” – Anonymous
“While divorce is not something I ever contemplated was possible and I wish it hadn’t happened, I am so glad that we chose the route of mediation. I have met many people going through divorce over the past year that have had very complicated and contentious situations through the court system. I feel very blessed that we were able to go through a collaborative process. I have great respect for the work that you do and how compassionate, respectful, and professional you were throughout the process.” – N.D.
“I just want to tell you how much I appreciate the work that you did. I truly believe that without your wisdom, experience, and effort we would have not been able to come to an agreement and we would have gone to trial. I also believe that if we had gone to trial, it would have been far worse both financially and emotionally for both of us.” – Ken
“Thank you so much for everything these past few months in mediation. I appreciate your patience, thoughtfulness, and kindness during this entire process.” – E.T.

We Prioritize Client Confidentiality Over Google Reviews
In today’s digital age, businesses often rely on public reviews to build credibility and attract new clients. At Northeast Ohio Family Law and Mediation LLC, however, we purposefully do not solicit or publish Google reviews. This decision reflects our unwavering commitment to protecting client confidentiality, which we believe are core values in family law and mediation.
One of the greatest benefits of mediation is the privacy it offers. Unlike court proceedings, which are public record, mediation provides a confidential environment where families can openly discuss sensitive matters without fear of judgment or exposure.
Instead of public reviews, we encourage our clients to share their experiences here. This allows us to highlight the positive impact of our services, while fully respecting their preferences. Whether a client chooses to remain anonymous, use their initials, or share their first name, we ensure that no identifying details or case specifics are ever disclosed.
While the absence of Google reviews might make it harder for prospective clients to find us, we believe that prioritizing client confidentiality is far more important. It reflects our dedication to the principles of mediation: fostering trust, creating a safe space for resolution, and protecting the dignity of everyone involved. We are proud to uphold these standards and hope this approach reassures our clients that their privacy is always our top priority.
