Today we remember the heroes whose sacrifice made our freedoms possible.

Memorial Day is more than the start of summer. It is a reminder of service, resilience, and the enduring strength of those who gave their lives for something greater than themselves.

From all of us at PowerHouse, thank you to the military families, veterans, and loved ones carrying that legacy forward.

We remember. We honor. We are grateful.

PowerHouse Mediation is very pleased to announce that attorney and neutral Michael Tewksbury has joined the distinguished roster at PowerHouse as a mediator, arbitrator, and special master.

Mike brings decades of respected legal experience to PowerHouse, including founding and leading a practice that successfully balanced both plaintiff representation and defense work. His background includes extensive experience in personal injury, wrongful death, dental malpractice, and a broad range of complex civil litigation matters.

Equally notable is the depth of experience Mike brings as a neutral. Over the course of his career, he has served as mediator and arbitrator in hundreds — if not thousands — of disputes. His reputation for professionalism, preparation, fairness, and practical resolution has made him a trusted name among attorneys throughout the legal community.

PowerHouse founder Kristi Paulson reflected on Mike’s longstanding reputation in the ADR community:
“At the beginning of my legal career, I remember appearing in mediations where Mike served as the neutral. Even early on, I recognized the professionalism, presence, and practical approach he brought to difficult cases. We are honored to now welcome him to the PowerHouse team.”

Mike embodies the level of experience, dedication, and professionalism clients and counsel have come to expect from PowerHouse Mediation neutrals. At PowerHouse, we remain committed to thoughtful resolution and to creating the best possible experience for individuals navigating what are often stressful and emotionally charged disputes.

We are honored to welcome Mike to PowerHouse and are excited to announce that he is now accepting appointments for mediations, arbitrations, and special master matters, with availability beginning as early as June.

Lawyers don’t need another neutral who “lets the parties talk.”
They need someone who:

1. Understands the case
2. Spots the leverage
3. Knows when to push

Today, we celebrate the mothers who lead, advocate, support, encourage, negotiate, comfort, and somehow still keep everything moving forward.

At PowerHouse, we see strength in many forms. Sometimes it stands in a courtroom. Sometimes it sits at a mediation table. Sometimes it shows up quietly every single day through patience, resilience, sacrifice, and love.

To the mothers balancing careers, families, conflict, caregiving, and the constant demands of life — we see you.

And to those spending today remembering, grieving, navigating difficult family dynamics, or carrying complicated emotions, we see you too.

Wishing you moments of peace, appreciation, and connection this Mother’s Day.
Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at PowerHouse.

“A mediation that doesn’t move the case is expensive silence.”

Good mediation is not just about filling a day on the calendar. It is about creating movement, testing assumptions, opening communication, evaluating risk, and helping parties make progress toward resolution.

Even difficult cases should move.
— Kristi Paulson | PowerHouse Mediation

When results matter...PowerHouse Mediation is who you want to use.

Not all mediations (or mediators) are created equal.

🟣 Some fill time.
🟣 Some move numbers.
🟣 Some resolve cases.

The difference is preparation—and pressure in the right places.
