Fred and Diane were very clear on how the process worked and we had a very good experience with them on zoom. The discussions between my husband and myself went quite easily considering the situation. They answered our questions completely and to our satisfaction and provided advice on how to handle matters. Once the paperwork went back and forth with corrections, we had a final zoom where we each had to sign many documents and take pictures of the signatures as we signed them and email the photos. This sounded like it would have been very difficult but went surprisingly well as Fred is very organized and quite patient. All went as they stated and I am glad I picked Fred and Diane to handle our mediation. I would recommend them to anyone wishing to have a divorce mediator!
Fred and Diane,Thank you so much for guiding us through our divorce. You helped make this difficult time as stress free as I would imagined possible. We were able to make some very difficult decisions regarding our kids, and the house, all thanks to your guidance. You patiently explained the steps of divorce to us very well. During the mediation sessions, you let us know our legal rights in NY, and then offered up possible solutions for our unique situation.The rest of the process was easy, and well documented. You let us know where we were at each step of the way, and answered all of our questions. Thank you for all your support. I am so happy that we used your mediation service.~Joanna
LI Divorce Mediation helped us through a very tough time. Despite the Pandemic and all the new procedures Fred and Diane were there for us every step of the way. They guided us through our divorce mediation and made us feel very comfortable along the way. They made a stressful time easier for us.
Mr. Klarer was very helpful during a stressful period over 15 years ago. It was also appreciative that 15 years later, Mr. Klarer was able to provide helpful documents and a prompt response saving me both time and money. I recommend using his firm if mediation is the right way to go for your situation.
The process was challenging but your guidance and expertise made it possible. thank you. :)
Fred and Diane helped us come to an equitable arrangement in a timely manner. Fred also helped us find a real estate lawyer to help with the deed transfer.
I honestly don’t know how these people have such rave reviews. We hired Diane and Fred as mediators towards the end of the summer. They advised due to covid it would take longer than usual (10 weeks) to draw up a separation agreement. We are very amicable and had essentially written out all our terms prior to meeting them but gave them that grace time. When the 10 weeks were up they were still giving “covid” excuses. When they finally delivered the first draft it was missing all kinds of information that we had already provided. We were told not to call or email with corrections, that we had to do it via a zoom call. We made our appointment but had to reschedule due to personal family issues. They did not respond or reply to any of our attempts to email or call and they never reached out to us on their own accord. They abandoned us as clients with no explanation whatsoever. I would never recommend them as mediators. They were completely disorganized and bickered with each other during our initial zoom call and subsequent phone calls as well which felt very awkward and uncomfortable. Perhaps they were just too overwhelmed to handle the workload...BUT it is completely unacceptable and unprofessional (I think illegal) to abandon your clients. We ended up switching to another local mediator/lawyer and she was able to hand us the first draft of our separation agreement within a week. She allowed corrections to be made via email and we signed our finally agreement the following week.
Given I was going through one of the worst times in my life, I think that you both did an excellent job leading me through my divorce. My wife and I quickly settled our differences. There was low stress and low cost. I recommend your Long Island Center for Divorce Mediation at Huntington, Suffolk County to all the people I know going through a divorce.
Fred is very patient and knowledgeable. I was experiencing a difficult divorce. His understanding and guidance definitely helped me persevere and grow through the process. If you are going through similar pain, Fred can be a voice of clarity, help sort out the priorities, and accompany through the difficult journey. My kids and I are very grateful to Fred.
Extremely well informed, patient and unbiased. I would highly recommend their services. Always gave us extra time.... and were NOT clock watchers...which is a welcome breath of fresh air (while you are usually at the mercy of your wallet) in the most stressful, important time of your life facing a divorce and custody issues.5 stars!
I found Fred and Diane to be very knowledgeable and professional. They made a difficult process very manageable. I highly recommend them and mediation for divorce.
Thank you, Fred and Diane, for helping us navigate through our mediated divorce on Long Island at your Long Island Center for Divorce Mediation In Huntington, NY.
Dr. Kramer is an amazing therapist, she listens first and then offers her thoughts in a resolution, with her many years of experience, she just has a way of making things very positive. I often went into a sesssion sometimes angry and left with a whole new brighter outlook on things and that’s in just 1 hour . To this day my spouse and I are still practicing what she taught us, I would highly recommend her to anyone who seeks her services .Dave Waller
