About the Firm

Dovetail Resolutions, LLC is a Connecticut-based mediation services firm. Mediation is a voluntary, flexible approach to resolving disputes with the help of a mediator, a neutral third party.  Mediation is a type of  “ADR” (alternative dispute resolution) or “DR” (dispute resolution). Conflict resolution through mediation allows parties in conflict to put an end to the costs of conflict: out-of-pocket costs, distraction, emotional strain, and loss of goodwill for a business or family. Parties work with the mediator, and their attorneys or other advisors if they choose, to create unique solutions to solve their unique problems.  Dovetail Resolutions has a focus on business conflicts, estate planning and settlement conflicts (sometimes called family wealth mediation),  and elder mediation.

Why “Dovetail”?

To dovetail is to connect distinct parts together to create a harmonious whole. In carpentry, the dovetail joint is recognized for its high quality, custom fit.

At Dovetail Resolutions, we strive to put these principles into practice to serve you through customized resolutions to conflict that are created to fit each party’s distinct interests. We work with you to resolve or minimize conflicts in many forms: from the final settlement of a litigated case or the negotiated terms of a business partnership dissolution to the business succession plan or estate plan that replaces family anxiety and anger with peace of mind.

We welcome the opportunity to assist you. Please contact us for a confidential, complimentary consultation.
