Milka Vujnovic B.A. LL.B. LL.M (ADR) - Family Law and Mediation Services - Hamilton, Ontario, Canada

“ I felt the process was absolutely necessary in our case, as the two of us had such limited communication. The only real time we actually discussed anything in a civilized manner was in an office with a third party there! So obviously for us the experience was necessary to make any progress. I was amazed how everything was dealt with in a years time and it didn't drag on any longer... thank goodness. We didn't have to involve the lawyers too much at all, which made their life and mine much easier, as we didn't have the back and forth process to deal with. I must admit it was a huge stressful time for me personally, but I'm just glad it's behind me and it was a huge learning experience. Just when you thought you knew someone... if you know what I mean.

Thanks for all your hard work and patience. I'm sure it must be a very challenging job you have at times, but the outcome for all involved is well worth it.”

“Milka, I would not have been able to get through that without you. You made the entire experience much less frightening. Thank you.”

“I thought the mediation process worked well for me. It saved a lot of time because we were both in the same room discussing issues and we could both speak and be heard. I have recommended it to others in my situation. I know it could have been a much more drawn out and painful process had we only used our lawyers...

Thank you for helping to make a very painful process a little easier”

“As for feedback on the co-mediation, I thought it went very well. I thought that it was very professional, and we were both able to voice our opinions and concerns with fairness. More importantly, I think that the sessions enabled us to communicate much better on our own. We still are fresh at this but I think that we can get better if we try hard enough.

I would also like to say that having Barb involved, was a great asset. She was not overbearing in any way, and made valid points for each side without taking sides, which can be difficult. Her input was valuable and well taken. Thank you for your help and professionalism. ”

“I would first like to thank you for the great service you provided to my wife and I. This process was very efficient in regards to the associated paperwork, meeting times, and associated costs.

Situations like this (separations, divorces) take a large toll on someone's mind, body and financial status. You take all those aspects into account when dealing with your clients and we appreciate it.

You and your staff create a friendly environment where people can discuss their situations and open up if they wish too. You listen and provide a caring decision with the client needs being the major factor.

Once again I would personally like to thank you for the timely work you performed on our file, and the personal care you provided. Thank you. ”

“I'll never forget all of the wonderful advice that helped me get through the most difficult part of my life. You gave me your calm, strength and confidence along with the advice that helped me deal with the turmoil that my children and I were in.

It was as valuable as the legal stuff and made me strong enough to get through the legal stuff.”

“Milka is a deeply experienced and highly skilled family law professional. Milka's professional services and support had the effect of  being most respectful of the need to preserve the remaining portions of the relationship with my Son's Mom , while still arriving at a legally binding arrangement that truly was in my son's best interests.

Milka sees past obstacles to solutions, Milka makes it happen.”

“Thank you for helping me through the worst time in my life. Your words from our conversations often come back and give me encouragement at times when I am not sure what to do next. This process takes a while and I am seeing that just because papers are there doesn’t necessarily end the feelings and issues that come up.

Suffice it to say that I am taking my time dealing with all the emotions that go hand in hand with kids and exhusband and all the whole mess. I am pleased to say that I am handling it as it comes and am doing pretty good.”
