Brian James and Ellen Feldman were of outstanding help in my divorce. They both remained sympathetic and professional throughout a difficult and acrimonious process. The mediation process is much faster and less costly than a litigated divorce and all divorcing couples should consider it, particularly with children. I strongly endorse them for the process.

Brian James was very helpful with our divorce process. Things went smoothly and he helped us to make the right decisions for our children. I would definitely suggest the mediation process and Brian to anyone going through a divorce. I think it’s healthier and happier for the children and parents. Highly recommended.

I received an email from Brian James in which he took issue with this review. And so I reminded him of the many areas in which he dropped the ball, e.g., his failure to include significant details in the divorce agreement (details that were added only after I did my own research), his failure to provide any proactive communication, his failure to remember and/​or write down the most basic information we provided him. … Just to name a few.
He responded with an excuse-​laden email that accounted for each one of his slip-​ups and generally absolved himself of any wrongdoing or poor service. He even wrote about one of his missteps, «I didn’t think it was that big of a deal.»
So there you have it. Customer service by Brian James: «I didn’t think it was that big of a deal.»
