Got Coronavirus Conflict?

This is a stressful, fast-changing time. There are a lot of hard decisions to be made under very challenging circumstances. Conflict is inevitable. As a result, we are offering on-line mediation at a reduced price for conflicts and decision-making challenges related to the coronavirus/covid-19 pandemic.

What’s the deal? Mediation is available via Zoom video conferencing to co-parents, businesses, family members, neighbors or anyone is having conflict caused by or related to the pandemic.

What’s the cost? The cost is $100 per hour (nearly 40% below the normal rate).

What can we mediate? Any issue related to or triggered by the pandemic and it’s prevention. For example: business partners disagreeing on what hours to operate or how to support staff; co-parents considering adjusting their custody schedule to accommodate school closings, working at home and/or illness prevention.

What conflict is not eligible? On-going conflict that was present prior to and/or unrelated to the pandemic can be mediated at the usual hourly rate.

Request a consultation about your situation.

Now Offering On-Line Services

I’m pleased to now offer mediation, coaching and selected workshops on-line via a video conferencing service. I love and appreciate the value of working with clients face-to-face, but also want to be responsive to requests to work with clients outside of my local area, to provide parties in high-conflict mediations an option to meet without sitting in the same room, and to allow more flexibility for busy and on-the-go clients.

Ellen Morfei: Super Mediator

Sometimes (maybe a lot of times), the world works in mysterious ways. This spring, a large package arrived in my home mailbox. It was sort of motley package with the distinctive hand-writing of a long lost friend of mine. The day was a few days from my birthday and this friend had surprised me with a quirky, usually handmade, gift on a few other birthdays, so I was pretty sure I was in store for another such gift. And look what I found! I love this fun and funky homage to my mediation work and the long-standing Philadelphia conflict about who makes our city’s best cheesesteak. I won’t weigh-in about the best cheesesteak (I’m impartial, right!), but I will share this fantastic drawing. “I think this shows we’re making real progress here.”
