PITTSBURGH - PennZone -- Pollock Begg Associate Lindsay A. Nemit recently earned certification for mediation, joining four of her colleagues at the Pittsburgh family law practice in offering this specialized service to clients.

Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution option where the parties jointly hire a mediator to assist them in working out a mutually satisfactory divorce agreement. In many cases, the mediation process saves clients time and money, and eliminates the need to go to court.

Nemit completed 40 hours of training through The Conflict Lab and Behrend Mediation Services to earn the certification. Combined with her experience and training in collaborative law, the new certification allows Nemit to offer clients a wide range of options beyond traditional litigation.

"There is no one-size-fits-all solution in family law; every family's dynamics and needs are unique," Nemit said. "It's our duty to provide tools and options to best serve them, and to do so with empathy and understanding."
