In this episode, host Andrew Samalin interviews Justin Kelsey, partner at Skylark Law and Mediation in Boston, whose career journey took him from courtroom litigation to becoming a leader in collaborative divorce and family mediation. Justin shares a moving story of a high-conflict divorce that, in a traditional courtroom, could have torn a family apart. But through the power of collaborative law and mutual compassion, he and the opposing attorney helped guide the family toward a peaceful resolution—preserving parenting relationships and emotional wellbeing along the way.
It’s a compelling example of what happens when legal professionals focus not just on the outcome, but on how people get there.
