Dr. Matthew L. Schwartz, DSW, LCSW, MBA, CFSW offers Solution Focused Mediation services designed exclusively for attorneys, corporations, and organizations seeking pragmatic, efficient, and peaceful resolution of disputes. Drawing on extensive clinical experience in high-stakes family, organizational, and crisis settings, Dr. Schwartz brings a unique skill set to legal and corporate mediation.
What Sets Solution Focused Mediation Apart
- Collaborative, Outcome-Oriented Process:
Mediation sessions are structured to foster productive dialogue among all parties, focusing on actionable solutions rather than prolonged debate. Agreements and understandings reached during mediation are communicated collaboratively to legal counsel or organizational leadership for formalization. - Clinical Expertise in Complex Dynamics:
With a background in family therapy, crisis intervention, and organizational consulting, Dr. Schwartz is uniquely prepared to facilitate mediation in challenging, emotionally charged, or high-conflict environments. This expertise ensures sessions remain peaceful, pragmatic, and focused on resolution. - Professional, Impartial Approach:
Mediation is conducted with strict adherence to ethical standards and confidentiality. Recommendations for organizations are communicated directly to supervisors, management, or leadership (C-Suite, Board), while agreements in legal matters are finalized through referring counsel. - Not “The People’s Court”:
Solution Focused Mediation is not adversarial or judgment-based. The process is designed to help parties reach mutual understanding and practical outcomes through a collaborative, iterative process, avoiding the pitfalls of traditional litigation or arbitration.
