Mediation Services

"I have known John Contini for over 20 years in his roles as defense attorney and circuit court judge. During that time, Mr. Contini has displayed superb communication skills and a unique ability to solve the most difficult problems. Mr. Contini has the skills of listening carefully to each side of a dispute, displaying compassion for both parties, and crafting satisfying solutions. I highly recommend Mr. Contini for mediation services."

"As someone who practiced law in Judge Contini's courtroom, I can tell you that I experienced first hand how passionate he is about helping people. He always encouraged litigants to find common ground and stay out of the courtroom and do what's best for their children. You will not find a more caring and passionate mediator than John Contini. If you're looking to keep your case out of the courtroom and save money on attorney's fees, then John Contini is your go-to guy."

"Knowing John for the last 14 years, through the ups and downs. Mr Contini is always fair and balanced, he is committed and driven to assist with any circumstance that arises. He is a compassionate man that always aims to mediate to the best of all parties involved. Being trained as a judge provided him the added tools to resolve some of the most complex situations that appear before him."

“I’ve known John for over 30 years as a fellow attorney here in Fort Lauderdale and have worked with him on occasion on criminal and civil matters. John is a people person who is not only caring and pragmatic but very cost conscious. I would recommend John as a mediator both prior to retaining counsel as well as in litigation. Engaging John will be money well spent.”

''I have great respect for John and believe he is an excellent choice mediator for family lawyers who are sincerely looking to resolve their cases. John is a no nonsense mediator who gets the job done both effectively and efficiently. I cannot say enough about this most compassionate and highly effective mediator who has a special talent particularly relevant to family law litigation.''

John Contini was frustrated with the lack of help that families were getting as a family court judge. When he spoke up about it he was chastised by the legal community. As a mediator he now can give his personal support and his in depth experience now to match the many family and legal issues with the right legal and other professionals that can give the client the help they desperately need. I personally recommend John Contini as a mediator who has the flexibility now to recommend to the client the help they need without interference from others who just want to rush a client through a process not caring for their mental or emotional needs. 

"Thank you so much for all of your work today. I think it was invaluable and you made something happen that we thought was impossible. On behalf of my client and I, we can’t thank you enough. You are on the top of my list! I look forward to working with you again and have absolutely told Deborah about you again last night. It was a true pleasure to see your work and how you handled the matter."
