I am a former public school teacher turned Assistant Attorney General (AAG) with the Office of the Attorney General of Texas and current family lawyer and mediator working on family and civil mediations in Texas and Florida. Since 2009 I have worked to help parties resolve their legal disputes in court, and more recently through mediation and arbitration. I mediate because I enjoy helping families resolve their legal disputes. I have operated my Pierre-Louis & Associates, PLLC Law Firm in Houston since 2014, host the Lawyers & Mediators International LMIPodcast.com, edit the blog YourChildSupportLawyer.com, and run ChildSupportMediation.com. Due to my passion in helping parties resolve their legal disputes outside of the courtroom, I founded InstantMediators.com, part of the LMI.Network of sites, a platform which encourages conflict resolution using technology, especially technology that ends the frustrating and time-consuming process of getting legal opponents to the negotiating table. Whether it’s a co-parenting dispute over kids or a conflict between business partners, I believe people should attempt to mediate it fast and move on.
