Why Us?

Advanced Mediation Solutions was founded by Ms. Tina Baker in 2004. She understood that mediation was a complex business that required an intimate knowledge of the law as well as counseling to effectively mediate a win-win for both parties. She brings with her a degree in law and is licensed in the state of Arizona as well as a license as a professional counselor.

When selecting a mediator always evaluate the credentials of the company and their mediators. If they are not a licensed attorney and/or counselor, then compare their credentials with Advanced Mediation Solutions to make sure you are receiving the best possible mediation services.

Why Mediation

By choosing to negotiate with each other under the mediator’s guidance, instead of hiring a lawyer to make “winning” arguments to  a judge, they have achieved an informed agreement that is carefully worded and workable, and therefore unlikely to result in post-judgment disagreement and litigation, i.e., an agreement that “sticks.”
