About Gabriel

I mediate as a side practice — divorce settlements, business disputes, partnership splits. You both get a neutral lawyer in the room instead of two litigators billing against each other. Most matters settle in one session. I draft the memorandum so what you agreed to is what you sign.

Flat fees

These are the whole price. No retainer, no hourly billing.
