JD Resolutions
Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Services
Why choose methods such as Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)?
ADR and other proven, collaborative methods help you resolve your conflict with a lower emotional and financial cost relative to traditional bargaining, win-lose compromise, endless recriminations, and litigation.
Why JDR?

Whether you aim to nip new conflict in the bud or relieve yourself of a chronic dispute, JDR is experienced with complex dynamics and high stakes.
Conflict can derail your valuable time, energy, mental and physical health, financial well-being, and quality time with loved ones.
Whether you are grappling with an existing or potential legal battle, a complex negotiation, difficult personal or workplace relationship dynamics, or a delicate email...

I help you get back on track.
How I help you
To thoroughly understand your dispute, I investigate its multidisciplinary elements and context, which may include the bold and nuanced behaviour of the other party's conflict style; your possible legal protections; relationship patterns and dynamics; emotional states; and digital communication efficacy. I probe and listen carefully to your goals. All these elements inform the optimal content and tone of your correspondence, as well as your choices on how to proceed with the highest probability of a successful outcome.
We work in partnership. I care about my clients.
I offer support for nearly every stage and angle of your conflict. If matters are no longer amenable to alternative dispute resolution, I help you connect with my network of top-quality, high-integrity legal professionals. My aim is to maximize your chance for success by adopting proven strategies that prioritize your needs and interests, while minimizing the risk of defensiveness and escalation. ​
