Civil Solutions Consultation, Mediation & Education

02/24/2023

About this time three years ago I began refocusing my law practice by ramping up my work through Civil Solutions, LLC, my consultation, mediation, and education firm. It has grown and changed over these last three years, and now includes a periodic Blog called "Keeping it Real!" which highlights lessons learned over my adult life. Visit my website at www.civilsolutionsms.com for more information, and please consider sharing this post for friends or family members who may need help resolving legal and other issues. Thanks!
How can Civil Solutions help you?
Do you ever shy away from having difficult, but necessary, conversations? Do you ever wish you had handled conflict with a loved one differently? Do you ever wish you could take back a text or email that you sent in the heat of the moment? Do you ever feel misunderstood and confused about why your spouse, ex-spouse, child, parent, sibling or friend reacted badly to something that you shared with them that was important to you? Do you find composing letters, emails, and texts to be challenging? If you answered yes to any of these, and if you would like individualized help with the next tricky conversation/letter/email/text, then visit www.civilsolutionsms.com to book an appointment for a consultation.
If you and your spouse from whom you are divorcing want to try to work out a property settlement or child custody/visitation/support issues, I may be able to help you reach agreement to avoid lengthy and expensive court processes and appearances. Visit www.civilsolutionsms.com to book an appointment for a one-on-one consultation with me to determine the appropriate next step for you.
If you and your spouse or former spouse wish to cultivate more effective communication and co-parenting, visit www.civilsolutionsms.com to book an appointment for one-on-one Communication and Co-Parenting Coaching, or to register for the next Communication Skills for Co-Parents class.
If you have a dispute with a business partner or other individual and want help with effective communication that can lead to a mediated resolution of the conflict, visit www.civilsolutionsms.com to book an appointment to discuss what type of mediation services are appropriate for your situation. If you aren’t sure exactly what you need but know that you would prefer to work out your circumstances in an amicable way as opposed to adversarial litigation, book an appointment for a general consultation today.
I look forward to helping you, because the best solutions are Civil Solutions!

We just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who took part in Boo in the Bay on the Gulf Coast. The Children’s Center received over $1,000 in donations from this event! Thank you so much to Gayle Adams with Krewe of Boo in the Bay for including us in this event, to Mandy Somerhalder and Rebecca Dunaway McLindon who offered their services (face painting and unicorn fun) in exchange for a donation to the Center, and to Cuz's Old Town Oyster Bar & Grill and Daiquiri Shak for the generous profit shares! We had a blast and are so grateful to them and to each of you who gave. Thank you! 🧡
