I cannot offer high enough praise or make a stronger recommendation for Ms. Rose. Anyone would be very hard pressed to find a more experienced, professional, capable mediator than Ms. Rose (Stevens). Very few people have the skill set she has which enables her to manage tense negotiations, very strong feelings in the room, often harsh words between husband and wife, and clients' time management issues. She effortlessly handles very difficult conversations and challenging personalities, always keeping the process moving toward resolution. In addition to her ability to handle difficult people and situations, her meticulous attention to detail, off-the-chart organizational skills, knowledge and understanding of the law, and her extensive mediation experience all combine to make her clients know immediately they are in very capable hands as they face a tough, emotional ordeal. She was patient, understanding, and kind even under the most stressful conditions during our sessions. I found her to be fair, straightforward and honest. She never gave up on reaching a settlement and succeeded in keeping us out of court by carefully and gently guiding us along. Ms. Rose was always respectful, upbeat and offered options, suggestions and remedies to find areas of agreement - no obstacle that presented itself was too difficult for her to manage. I hope you don't, but if you need a professional mediator/attorney, you absolutely can not do better than Ms. Rose. Good luck. read more
