Modern Divorce & Mediation

Modern divorce, mediation, and collaborative family law focused on practical solutions.

Not Every Divorce Has to Become a Courtroom Battle

At Silvestri Family Law, we believe the legal process should reduce conflict—not create more of it. Whether you’re navigating divorce, child custody, support, or another family law matter, our goal is to help you reach practical, lasting solutions while preserving relationships whenever possible.

For more than 20 years, we have guided individuals and families from all walks of life—including business owners, professionals, first responders, educators, and stay-at-home parents—through some of life’s most difficult transitions. While every family’s circumstances are unique, our commitment remains the same: providing thoughtful legal guidance with compassion, integrity, and a steadfast focus on helping you build a stronger future.

Through mediation and collaborative divorce, families can resolve difficult issues with respect, transparency, and a shared commitment to moving forward.

Melinda Eitzen

Family Lawyer

Carie helped mediate a difficult family matter on relatively short notice and with time limits that made the chance of settlement seem impossible. Carie got the case settled! She worked tirelessly to get right to business, and negotiated a resolution that all the parties could live with, and peace came to the family. If you’re looking for a mediator who can get a case settled, Carie is your person!
