Committed to conflict resolution
At West Coast Family Mediation, we are a group of mediators dedicated to helping you resolve your family’s conflicts and legal issues respectfully and with compassion. We focus on providing divorce mediation, premarital mediation, marital mediation and other family mediation services. Although our founder is a licensed Attorney, unlike many other family mediators, we do not engage in litigation within our practice. West Coast Family Mediation is entirely focused on minimizing conflict through mediation and creating harmony for our clients that extends far beyond the mediation sessions. While it might sound lofty, our main goal is to make mediation the main form of dispute resolution for Family Law cases. Mediation isn’t just an alternative form of dispute resolution; we feel strongly that it should be the main form of dispute resolution when it comes to dealing with a divorce and other family law issues.
Our founder, Amanda Singer is the only family law mediator in California who is a licensed California Attorney and Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA®) with a Masters in Dispute Resolution and extensive mediation and family law training. Amanda has mediated and assisted hundreds of couples through this process. All of our other mediators have their law degrees (Juris Doctor (JD)) and most also have their CDFA® as well, a key advantage for couples with complex financial questions or concerns. Our professional family mediators have extensive mediation training, divorce financial knowledge, and years of experience mediating many different types of family cases. We provide our divorce and family mediation services based out of our office in San Diego and serve all of California online.
