After a great deal of investigation and review of mediators in the area, my husband and I chose to…read morework with Ellen to settle our divorce. We are so glad that we did! Ellen is an amazing person and an outstanding mediator. What impressed me most about Ellen was her ability to listen, sort through what was important to us and come up with a solution that worked for our whole family. Ellen always kept the interests of our children in the center of the conversation and advocated for them whenever necessary. She was honest, sincere and nonjudgemental, all qualities that helped us to reach an agreement that was fair and reasonable. During one of the most difficult times in our lives, Ellen helped my husband and I stay focused on our values - being respectful, supporting our children in whatever they need and finding solutions that will accommodate all of us. I would recommend Ellen without hesitation to anyone who is considering a divorce.

While I don't wish divorce on anyone, if both parties choose that route and decide on mediation, I…read morehighly recommend that you consider hiring Attorney Ellen Plasil. Her commitment, concern for all parties and requisite skills are top notch and you couldn't possibly be in better hands. My ex-husband and I retained the mediation services of Ellen Plasil in August of 2014. Prior to choosing her as our mediator in the summer of 2014, I researched several other mediators in the area, and during our initial telephone conversation, I found Attorney Plasil's demeanor to be knowledgeable, professional, respectful and incredibly warm. The services she offered were all inclusive and her rates were on par with all of the other mediators that I researched. Further, I received several referrals for her services. In short, choosing Ellen Plasil as our mediator, was a no brainer. Attorney Plasil approached every meeting we had with her, with sensitivity and sincerity, and brought incredible awareness and insight to the unique legal issues we brought to the table. She immediately put us both at ease with her kind, warm, and funny personality. We even had several moments of levity during tense times (which I know is hard to believe, but it's true). Her knowledge of divorce law and her impeccable work ethic stood out at every session. Most important, was her need to be fair to both parties. She never took sides and was extremely fair when it came to working on finances and splitting assets and I know for a fact that my ex would echo my sentiments. Ms. Plasil took all of our distinctive issues into account when drafting our settlement agreement and even went so far as to include our dog into the agreement, which was a relief to both of us. She didn't miss a single detail. I simply cannot recommend Ellen Plasil highly enough! She is caring, kind, thoughtful, thorough, extremely knowledgeable and goes out of her way to be fair and sensitive to all parties involved. The fact is, she is an absolute pleasure to be around, can make a person laugh during trying times and is just one of the most amazing people I have ever met. We lucked out when we chose her as a mediator. She is simply the best. I can actually say that I miss having sessions with her (and that says a lot!).

After this unrepairable damage was done, he just stopped returning my calls entirely. When I'd call the office in desperation, his secretary went from being sickeningly sweet to mean and nasty.
