Leyla does a great job of not taking sides. She acts fairy to each party by acknowledging points made by both parties. She helps weigh options clearly by asking each party to soncider the reasonable outcomes. I highly recommend putting your trust and time into Leyla’s hands as she is an effective mediator.
