WHY CHOOSE THE KNOWLEDGE FIRM

While acknowledging that in certain cases, relying on the courts to determine disputes is necessary, many cases can be successfully resolved with Mediation and court-approved classes and programs.

Through mediation the parties reduce the expenses and stresses associated with court proceedings, including the emotional toll of litigated conflict.

With over 30 years of combined experience, the team at The Knowledge Firm is dedicated to providing the best possible service.

Parties meet privately with the family/civil mediator. Start with The Knowledge Firm.
