We have offered Divorce Mediation services since 1994. We conduct most Divorce Mediations via Zoom videoconference so you do not have to travel to a Divorce Mediator’s office, but can attend from home or work!. If clients wish to do face-to-face mediations in our downtown Sarasota law office we always try to accomadate them! Most of our clients wish to divorce with dignity, and with as little emotional injury to their children. Other clients are attracted to our mediation service because a “cash business” or other unreported income situation is present and they desire total confidentiality while negotiating their divorce.
We offer a Free initial 30 minute introductory mediation session via Zoom so that you and your spouse will have an opportunity to get to know Mr. Leininger and he can answer all your questions.
