Northern Virginia

Judge Strickland successfully mediated a very challenging personal injury case for us through zoom.  Not only did our injured client receive a favorable settlement,  Judge Strickland was able to save us nearly two thousand dollars by handling the zoom technology herself, including establishing and managing break out rooms without charging any additional fees.   What a bonus given the challenges lawyers and clients are facing during these uncertain times!

Northern Virginia

I know this particular case had more twists than anyone could imagine. I appreciate your skill and efforts. I doubt the case would have settled if you had not been the mediator. This case exemplifies once again the merit of mediation. I look forward to working with you in the future.

Winchester

Thanks so much for your efforts in helping (the parties) reach an agreed resolution. I don't need to tell you that your expertise has saved them thousands of dollars in further legal expenses and it was gratifying to see them part amicably at the conclusion of the mediation. I look forward to working with you again.

I have used her services several times. Each time, I have found her to be excellent. She obviously is a brilliant jurist and that allows her to grasp obscure legal concepts quickly. My clients have liked her and were persuaded by her, even when she was gently pushing back against their positions. This is exactly the skill a mediator needs to get cases settled.

Richmond

Your experience and approach was instrumental in resolving the matter. I know that our client was very impressed with your work. Thank you again for your assistance.

Southwest Virginia

Once again, thank you for facilitating the settlement. As I am sure you saw quite quickly, litigation was likely to occur in this case prior to your involvement. The parties in this case did not opt to go to mediation, they were forced to do so under the contract. Thus, I truly did not expect the parties to reach a settlement. Let me thank you on behalf of myself, as well as (clients) for your assistance in resolving this case.

Central Virginia

Thanks for your very skilled work in our mediation. It was quite clear who was working the hardest and I know how difficult it was to be the buffer between our two groups. Your commitment to getting these parties to an agreement, and your skilled performance as a mediator, were key to that success. We will always wonder how you managed to get that next-to-last big move from the other side, and will look forward to the next opportunity to work together.

Northern Virginia

Judge Strickland is exceptional. She mediated two extraordinarily emotional cases involving young children, with a firm hand, gentle heart and compassion. In one case she adroitly took over a mediation that had failed spectacularly and resolved the case, speaking in Spanish with our clients and making them feel more relaxed.

Southwest Virginia

It was indeed a pleasure to work with you. I don't mind sharing that (my client) was particularly happy with your assistance in bringing this matter to a close. You are now on my short list of mediators for cases west of Roanoke.

Central Virginia

I did not believe that the case was going to settle. The fact that it did speaks volumes about your mediation skills.

Central Virginia

Wow. You worked for this one. Thank you so much !!

Richmond

I wanted to thank you for your extraordinary efforts to help us resolve the case. It was such a pleasure to work with you. We truly appreciated your empathy for (client) who felt both comfort and confidence with you handling the negotiations. We look forward to working with you again.

Northern Virginia

You were wonderful to work with and my client was very pleased with the process, outcome and not only your demeanor, but also your experience and hard work. Whether defense or plaintiff, you are certainly on my list to use.

Charlottesville

I thought you did a beautiful job with the mediation and was surprised and impressed that the case was resolved. Thanks for your patience, persistence, optimism and skillful interaction with (ins.rep.). I look forward to working with you again soon.

Southwest Virginia

You are extremely effective and I have already recommended you to a VADA member.

Central Virginia

I truly believe you are at the top of your profession.

Northern Virginia

I recommended you for this case because I knew that it would be difficult. You are the business mediation whisperer.

Roanoke

With your diligence and excellent mediation skills, we were able to achieve full and fair resolution of two life altering experiences for our clients. Please accept our sincere appreciation for all you do to help bring closure for many hurting individuals.

Abingdon

I was doubtful that this (nursing home) case would settle. You did an excellent job.
