CCMA Rates for Mediation & Alternative Dispute Resolution in Southeastern Wisconsin

Linda was great helping us through the process! I am glad we were able to find this vs dragging lawyers into it.

Linda spent 7 hours going through our 17 year marriage to help us make decisions in the best interest of our children and each other. We had such a pleasant experience. Linda was both professional and knowledgeable. I am so glad that my husband and I chose the civil, respectable services which have made this extremely tough decision one that will better the lives of our children and us for the future. We can not say enough great things about her and her proven process. Many thanks Linda!!!

Thank you judge Linda! I was trapped in a very highly emotional divorce with my husband and our 2 lawyers. We were getting nowhere fast and the bills were getting higher and higher everytime we me with lawyers! Finally my husband found Judge Linda at CCMA Solutions and suggested we give mediation a try. I was very skeptical and didn't want to pay someone else to do the same thing. I chatted with her once to see what the process was and decided it made sense. We also decided to go alone and skip the double billing of attorneys. I still can't believe we got it all resolved. She helped us complete all of the paperwork and agree on all of our issues. Sure we had some heated discussion, but Linda kept us on point and was able to keep things civil somehow. I find it hard to believe we could use mediation, but it made sense and was a lot less crazy than all of us arguing with lawyers back and forth. I saved a lot of money by not going to court and I have an agreement I can live with. I don't think its crazy anymore.

My husband and I used Judge Linda for our divorce and she was super! We resolved our whole divorce in one day with about 5 hours and left with signed papers to file with court. It was so easy and she helped keep the peace while addressing the stuff that needed to be decided. We didn't have money to pay an attorney a large retainer and I was afraid that court would make things worse between my husband and I with the kids. We put together a plan for our kids and divided all of our stuff and it's done! WOW I never would have believed it and I highly recommend Judge Linda to mediate your divorce!!

Linda was very helpful throughout our divorce process. I had to talk to her a few times. Was emailed back a few times within the same day. Made me feel very comfortable during a difficult time. Highly recommend!

After being a small claims battle for over a year we finally decided to try mediation with Linda. The other side was being difficult so we decided to hire Linda as our lawyer instead of mediation. I am so glad we did because she was able to settle out of court. They ended up dropping the case without us having to pay anything!

Her fees were beyond reasonable and she was great to deal with. Hopefully we never are in this situation again but if needed we have her number on speed dial!

I couldn't recommend her more!

While I wish I never had to contact Judge Linda, she clearly has experience in the field. There were a few times my wife and I struggled to come to terms on things, and Linda helped find a solution. Cheaper and "nicer" than having to go through one or most likely two lawyers.

Judge Linda Van De Water is extremely knowledgeable on a variety of legal matters. She explains everything well so that someone without a legal background can have a full understanding. I highly recommend her!

At the beginning of my divorce mediation, Judge Linda took the time to get to know me and the specific details of my situation. I appreciate the fact she listened!! She was prepared and reviewed all the details. What I appreciate the most is fact that she is strait forward, direct, and to the point. I would recommend mediation with Judge Linda!

I met with Linda to talk about mediation for my ex-husband and I. We have been in a very contentious post divorce struggle for the last 4 years. During my meeting with Linda, she was very understanding of my situation and the high conflict nature of it. She listened to everything, even though it was a lot and took longer than she had planned. I never felt she was trying to rush me through, but rather she asked further questions to better understand the situation. I also appreciated how straight forward she is, which helps in situations where people are arguing just to argue. Before our meeting ended, she gave me a clear to do list and I left feeling like there was hope for my situation. I wish my ex-husband and I would have mediated with Linda from the very beginning. I highly recommend Linda to anyone, especially those in a high conflict divorce situation.

I had my first experience as a family law attorney with Judge Van de Water in a court ordered mediation. I will use her on my cases for all future mediations. She came prepared, having reviewed everything she could about the case. It was one of the most high conflict cases I've had, and Judge Van de Water was able to take a case that I thought was certainly headed to trial and used her common sense, out-side-the-box, and compassionate approach to help the parties ultimately find a resolution that avoided the trial. Often times parties just want to be heard, and Judge Van de Water takes the time to listen and uses that to find the solution that fits best with both parties' priorities and needs. Like I said, I was so impressed that I will use her for all future mediations. I highly recommend her, particularly for those tough cases.

We bought a house and had an issue with the prior owners not disclosing an in-ground pool that was covered up! We filed a lawsuit and hired an attorney, but had to give them a large retainer which still wouldn't cover a court trial. We were at the end of our rope and wanted to resolve the case without spending a fortune to do so. We were told about Judge Linda and mediation. Frankly my wife and I were skeptical that mediation would work and would be a waste of time and more money, but we spent the day in mediation and actually got a resolution that we were happy with for a lot less money than going to court and having a trial! I was so happy we mediated and I'm pleasantly surprised that it worked. It was the best advice and decision we could have made. I totally believe in mediation with Judge Linda and she convinced me she can resolve even complex cases with a lot of heated emotions from both sides!  Thank you for saving us money and getting us peace of mind and closure for our case!

From the first phone call I made to Linda I knew she was the one I wanted to work with. With her extensive work experience she understand the process and is not afraid to tell you the hard truth on what the law says. She does a great job of listening to each side and breaks down what the law will see as fair even if you don't believe it is fair. Life is not fair and it is not Linda making these calculations but rather the legal system. It's a hard lesson to learn that when you marry you have signed a legal agreement and the law decides your fate if you break this agreement. I would highly recommend Linda to anyone going through a divorce that is looking to save money by not hiring a lawyer. If you want to keep it civil then using a 3rd party makes things a lot easier when they do not work for either side like a lawyer does.

She was so kind, and spent so much time talking with me on three separate occasions, giving me advice, and I am not even her client!!! What a wonderful, beautiful woman, there is not enough kind words to be said about you !!!

Judge Linda Van De Water was AMAZING in helping mediate my divorce! She made what could have been a very difficult divorce move forward quickly and smoothly. She help us complete all the necessary documents we needed and step by step directions on how to e-file. Even after we filed there was information entered in correctly by the county clerks office and she help me get ahold of someone right away and helped to get the situation rectified! I would highly recommend her and her company.

We had a very professional experience with our mediation working with Judge Linda via CCMA Solutions. She was very respectful towards our situation and was well informed of the steps/procedures/guidelines of the mediation/divorce process. She was able to address and/or direct us with any questions or concerns we had. We would highly recommend CCMA Solutions to anyone working towards an amicable resolution and seeking education of how the overall process works.

Judge Linda Van De Water was great! She really helped us come to agreement. Everything was done quick and drama free. She went above and beyond!! I would recommend her to anyone!!!

Linda was great to work with! She made the whole process go very well. I would highly recommend Judge Linda very easy to talk with and very caring. Also the price was so much less than attorney fees. Thanks again Linda for all your help.

My wife and I highly recommend Judge Linda for a personable, supportive and straight forward mediation process. She was prompt, clear and made what could have been a grueling process easy to understand and comfortable to move forward.

This was the first time I used Judge Van De Water for the mediation of my clients' litigation. Session was very well conducted and cost effective. I will recommend Judge Van De Water to others seeking mediation.

Linda's divorce mediation services made the filing process and information gathering easy to understand through our day long conference call. We were able to complete the paperwork in an amicable manner, with our son's best interest mind, with Linda's guidance and expertise.

Linda is a no-nonsense mediator who knows her stuff. She was able to help us work through all of the paperwork in a day, and then was gracious enough to see it through when we hit a couple of snags. It was great to pay so much less than we would have with lawyers.

During an extremely difficult time, Linda was thoughtful and kind as we talked through all the legalities of divorce. I would highly recommend her, not only because it saves a lot of money, but because of her knowledge and thoroughness. We resolved all of the issues in our divorce amicably in one day of mediation.

Linda spent 7 hours going through our 17 year marriage to help us make decisions in the best interest of our children and each other. We had such a pleasant experience.

Linda was very helpful and easy to work with. The process was fast and it was very easy to work through everything together. Would recommend using Judge Linda for your mediation needs!

Excellent at facilitating communication!

Linda is wonderful to work with! She brings a tremendous amount of value to the table with her experience and ensures a fair & reasonable approach from both sides. She is able to remain impartial, understand both sides of negotiations and aid both parties in protection as well, resulting in an amicable resolution. She can infuse levity into difficult circumstances. A huge money saver as well!! I'm so glad we hired Linda instead of 2 attorneys!

Linda was great helping us through the process! I am glad we were able to find this vs dragging Lawyers into it.

Linda is professional, thorough, and, most importantly, very personable. She made this very daunting task more manageable and comfortable. We were able to come to an agreement that we were unable to reach on our own. I wish we'd have met with Linda even earlier on to save some frustration. Highly recommend.

Linda is an excellent mediator and goes above and beyond what is expected. I would recommend her services to anyone. Thanks!! Even after almost a year she will still answer questions via phone or email. She has great suggestions and is always looking out for everyone involved.

Linda is very smart, knowledgeable, and straightforward. My spouse and I were able to divorce so quickly because of her help. Even couple months after her service when I contacted her to ask questions about the mediation we had, she checked her note and kindly answered exactly I wanted to know.

Linda helped ease the difficulty of a divorce and made me feel comfortable through the process. I went in with no idea of how anything would go and Linda explained everything in a way I could understand! I HIGHLY recommend mediation it was easy and straightforward especially when there are children involved. Thank you Linda!

Judge Linda was awesome. She is incredibly knowledgeable, super efficient, thoughtful, kind and understanding. With Judge Linda you can accomplish in 7 or 8 hours what two lawyers would stretch out into a year or more charging you per hour. I would highly recommend her to any couple who is divorcing amicably.

Linda was a great mediator through our divorce process. Made things easy during a tough time. Had to email her a few times. Got responses the same day. Excellent price for services. Highly recommend!

Judge Van De Water is an effective and assertive diplomat who uses finesse and decorum to get the job done. She is a good read of people's character and therefore knows what style to use in order to attain solutions that are acceptable to both parties. Without Judge Van De Water's expertise, I am certain my former spouse and I would have continued to go around in circles trying to figure out how to disentangle our lives from each other. I have the utmost respect for Judge Van De Water and highly recommend her services/expertise to anyone who needs mediation. A satisfied client, Karen.

Excellent mediator! Fair, honest and practical. Linda works hard to get a deal all parties can live with. I highly recommend her services!

I cannot thank Judge Linda enough for helping me in a difficult situation of my life. She has taught me to be strong and not give up. I was in a divorce situation where my lawyer does not know what he's doing and does not do anything at all it was a nightmare. I was just about to give up everything and found Judge Linda Van De Water through AVVO. She is a God send; extremely knowledgeable yet very caring and supportive. She did a fantastic job in turning around the situation in getting me an amicable settlement that I was very happy with. The only regret I had was not finding Judge Linda first and I would have avoided all the stress and legal fees. I highly recommend Judge Linda.
