Community Relations

If you have a dispute that you want to resolve, or you want to prevent a dispute, Laura Alpert can help provide you with the tools you need to resolve your conflict  through active dialogue.

Mediation can be a better way to resolve many types of personal disputes between family members, friends or neighbors because it is quick, low cost, private and less stressful than court. If you are not happy with the outcome of mediation, you may still pursue any options that were available before mediation.

Common types of community mediations include:

Neighborhood – pet issues, noise, property damage

Roommate – problems with rules, bills, friends

Landlord/Tenant – repairs, damages, deposits

Builder/Homeowner – contract issues, construction, repairs

Customer/Merchants – refunds, exchanges

Small Claims – money, personal

Laura Alpert is committed to developing the capacity of our community to respectfully resolve conflict and repair harm. Evening and Weekend sessions are available for community restorative mediations. A sliding scale fee may be applicable, contact Laura Alpert to discuss your situation.
