"We agreed to end our 17 year marriage. We chose to work with Julie Seymour as mediator in order to take personal responsibility in learning the process and in staying focused on what was important to each of us throughout."

Alternative Dispute Resolution

In addition to more traditional areas of practice, Otten & Seymour has sought to serve the needs and interests of its clients by employing Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) techniques when appropriate. Attorneys are qualified by the Minnesota Supreme Court to perform mediation and arbitration. When used properly, ADR such as mediation and arbitration can bring about more timely resolution of disputes and, on occasion, at dramatically lower cost than by customary means.

At Otten & Seymour, alternative dispute resolution activities involve family law and personal injury matters, which often benefit from such an approach. Attorneys Julie Seymour and Paul Otten are Qualified Rule 114 Neutrals. Paul Otten serves regularly as an arbitrator for the American Arbitration Association.
