#1 Ranked Mediation Training by the US Dept of Education

Testimonials

University of Massachusetts Lowell:"I was grateful for the opportunity to be trained by Alternative Dispute Resolution Services (ADRMediator, Inc.). It was truly a privilege, because J.R.'s expertise and insight into the dynamics of an effective mediation are so extensive. His experience mediating hundreds of conflicts was very apparent, as he brought appropriate guidance for multiple types of scenarios.
His training was particularly enriching in that he dealt with conflict variables as well as human psychology/personality variables. I had time to role-play and receive insights to further hone my skills through the training. I appreciated his focus on thoughtful listening, which he not only taught but also demonstrated while watching the role-plays and providing input. I believe J.R.'s training can benefit even the most experienced mediator. I recommend him to everyone who wishes to attain basic credentials, as well as those who want to take on the challenge of attaining a new level of expertise."
Sincerely,Rebecca H.Equal Opportunity Associate

I would like to take this opportunity to give you some feedback on the recent mediation that you handled recently for this office. I found the process to be very professionally done and appreciate that the outcome of the mediation seemed satisfactory to both the agency and the complainant.
I'd like to add a personal note that I enjoyed meeting you and certainly see why your company is apparently very successful. If all of the mediatiors share the skills that you have acquired, I'm certain that most all of your clients would give a similar endorsement.

I am very interested in how our system here could be made more efficient, get more people to settlement faster and be less of a drain on court resources. From what I have heard, the approach you worked on in Texas is certainly an improvement over how we are doing things here. As we discussed, I am here on the bench until at least the end of November, and I intend to try to participate in the discussion on how to improve our way of doing things here in the meantime from my perspective as a family court judge. I have done several of the ADR mediations recently and have observed firsthand the problems with the way it is handled here. There is clearly room for improvement."

Texas Department of Insurance:"We have been so pleased with the quality of education your organization has provided; we will continue to utilize your services."
