My wife and I had unique reasons for divorcing each other, yet none of them had to do with not loving each other. Leslie Hoffman had the intuition and the patience to listen to our unique stories and to facilitate the tradeoffs documented into our separation agreement. My soon-to-be-ex-wife and I told Leslie that that we intend to work at remaining friends after divorce. Leslie is a consummate professional at what she does and an adept humanist at doing it.

Leslie did a wonderful job, not only with her thoroughness when drafting documents but with managing her clients (us) through an emotional process. This wasnt a fun thing to do, but I do believe it was far less painless than a traditional divorce through attorneys would have been.Hopefully I wont need to do this again, but if I did I would go through Leslie.

Leslie was terrific. She was very clear and concise and explained all of the details we needed to know in a very straightforward manor. My ex and I were able to use her mediation services in a reasonable amount of time and complete our divorce and parenting plan without the use of expensive lawyers. She also worked with us around our busy schedules and need for babysitters to help us accomplish our goals in the time frame we needed. I would recommend her highly.

My husband and I went to separate attorneys to get our divorce negotiated. Mine quoted me $60,000, his quoted him $55,000. So we decided to go to mediation. The judge in our case suggested Leslie as a mediator - he had her divorce mediated agreements in his court before and liked working with her, so he suggested we contact her. Good referral! We met with Leslie four times. We both enjoyed working her. She’s fair. Not biased. And, she kept us on task. Our divorce cost is less than $3,000. I highly recommend her as a resource for a low cost divorce solution.

Leslie did great work and was very professional with both my husband and I during a very difficult process. She demonstrated knowledge of the system, displayed patience, and an unbiased opinion. Leslie handled herself with dignity and grace in the presence of an incident of being accused of conspiracy along with an attack on her personal and professional integrity by my husband for simply answering a question I posed regarding marital assets. The accusations in no way reflected the her ethical demeanor and she responded with concern and willingness to explain the entire story in effort to clear up confusion. She articulated herself and left no questions unanswered and responded promptly to my husbands accusations. I am grateful for her presence through a trying experience and highly recommend her services.

Leslie was so thurough and helpful in the meditation process. Her expertise definitely shows in her work and time management. The process of divorce hurts but it doesn’t have to be complicated.

My wife suggested the Center for Divorce Solutions as a mediation group for our upcoming divorce. During our first visit of discussing a divorce agreement more attention was paid to my wifes desires than my own. It wasnt a huge deal due to the specific topics involved. However, after our session ended I left the conference room and held the door for my wife. Then, I heard our mediator and my wife speaking on how they could split our real estate property for my wifes benefit. I re-entered the room and told both of them the conspiracy was not welcomed and I expected more out of both of them. When i got home I wrote our mediator requesting a copy of our agreement since weve paid in full to that point. I also advised her I would be writing review on my experience. I hope they fulfill the request to send a copy of our agreement so far.Update: The next day I received an email from our mediator attempting to explain her position and defending her actions. She denies any wrong-doing and also supplied a copy of our agreement as of close the previous session.

I have hired Leslie for mediation services to help my clients resolve elder law situations. I cant tell you how impressed I have been with Leslies deliberate approach to complex issues and uncanny ability to transform seemingly unworkable conflicts into win-win agreements.Leslie its also skilled at converting results into accurate and easy to comprehend written form.In short. you wont find a more calm, graceful, and dedicated dispute-resolution professional than Leslie Hoffman.Richard Hughes, Esq.
