What Makes Bill Leininger's Proven Mediation Effective

Quick answer

What makes Bill Leininger's mediation effective? He steers couples away from rehashing past misdeeds, focusing forward instead—New York's no-fault law, in place over 15 years, makes fault irrelevant anyway. Married 54 years himself, he believes people often divorce too hastily and gently urges more time when a marriage seems salvageable. His consistent, forward-looking approach keeps negotiations productive.
