Divorce Through Mediation Eliminating the Battle Finding Peace with Amy Martell

Amy is trained as a collaborative attorney and mediator, and is deeply committed to helping clients resolve their family law disputes mindfully, creatively and with minimal court involvement. Here Amy shares why you may want to consider mediation over traditional legal representation for privacy, long-term financial savings, mental health, child-friendly agreements, mental and emotional health, and to create a stronger foundation for success moving forward.

Amy attended Wesleyan University and Lesley University as an undergraduate, obtained her master’s degree in music therapy from New York University, and earned her J.D. as an Edward F. Hennessey Distinguished Scholar from Boston University School of Law. She brings a rich history of experience to her legal practice, including two years of service as a judicial law clerk to the Massachusetts Probate and Family Courts, of counsel work for Jennifer DiGregorio and Associates. Her prior career as a music teacher and music therapist, and a tenure as bartender at No. 9 Park, one of Boston’s finest restaurants.

Amy also brings personal experience to her family formation work; both of her children were conceived through ART with a known donor, and she celebrates opportunities to help other families create their unique domestic constellations.

Amy is a member of the Massachusetts and Plymouth Bar associations, the Massachusetts Gay and Lesbian Bar Association, the Massachusetts Council of Family Mediators, the South Shore Women’s Business Network, and she is proud to be a board member and local practice group leader for the Massachusetts Collaborative Law Council. She is an avid local food enthusiast, a dedicated zen student and a lazy musician. She lives with her wife, their two young children and a gaggle of egg-laying chickens.

ABOUT STEPH ROBERTS

Steph had the good fortune to start the earliest parts of her life in a communal Christian environment. Growing up this way as a child of a single mother to three children she saw first hand the struggle of adults navigating power dynamics within the church and within smaller church groups. She noticed that adults had a tough time seeing the manipulation and duplicity that was so clear to her. In spite of or because of this she found herself on a path that connected her to a series of power struggles with narcissists at work and in romantic and family relationships.

That feeling of "having magnets in your pockets" for these kinds of people.

She was stuck and wanted to break free of her situation and the patterns. But when she finally did she saw that many women were experiencing the very same thing. She was not weird or weak; she was like hundreds of thousands of others who were hiding the truth from their friends and family and taking on the burden of the dysfunction in these relationships.
