PJD Mediation, LLC

"Shady mediator. It's been three years since my ex and I met with her, but her lack of clarity and attention to detail, not to mention lack of hearing my concerns led me to being "awarded" 90% of the marital debt instead of the usual 50%. Along with my attorney, Andrea Dalton, I was urged to accept a settlement that didn't sound right to me, but as I read back my concerns they assured me that my understanding was correct. The judge determined differently. I highly recommend you find someone else for fair mediation."

"I am a family law attorney and can honestly say that Pat is one of the best mediators in Denver. She listens to both sides and tries to come up with an agreement that works for both parties. I have been using her as a mediator for years. Sometimes we settle the case and sometimes we do not. Pat is easy to work with and always professional. I read the other reviews and want to point out that one of the problems in mediation is the mediator has to spend more time with the unreasonable person than the one who is reasonable. One should not feel slighted if a mediator spends less time with you. Take it as a compliment."

"Very Biased. She seems to decide right up front which client to side with and fights for them all the way through. In my case, if there was anything that my ex-husband and I disagreed upon, she took his side. Sadly, she was also our arbitrator which means this one-sided decision is now in our permanent Parenting plan. My kids are the ones that get to suffer. I did not ask for anything outrageous. I had evidence and all documentation she required... my Ex walked in with a photo of what he thought was income (a check from a roomate) he obtained this "evidence" by trespssing. Then there was his "best guess" on health insurance costs. She asked him lots of questions to make sure he paid as little as possible in support and that was what she used in figuring up our child support and split of expenses. I wasn't even asked about my own child care expenses. My evidence meant nothing. I could go on.... Find someone that will advocate for the kids, not one of the parents only."

"As a family law attorney, I have had the pleasure of working with Ms. Donahue on a variety of matters and she has proven to be an excellent mediator. Her calm demeanor and straightforward approach are invaluable tools as she works her magic to resolve some rather difficult issues."

"Beware of this mediator. During conversations she would discuss the details of my conversation with my other half but when she would come into the room to speak with us she would be strictly business and not disclose any information except for what the proposal was. This is NOT a NON-BAIS third party by no means! She will side with the female 100% of the time. I spoke with my ex and she told me detailed information that was strictly between my lawyer and I. The only way for her to know was because Mrs. Donahue told her and her lawyer. It was her lawyer that requested Mrs. Donahue and this mediation service and I totally see why now."
