Divorce Mediation & Settlement Consulting · Arvada, CO

A Calmer, More Affordable Path Through Divorce

Litigation pits spouses against each other — and it's expensive. Method Mediation helps Colorado couples reach fair agreements on finances and parenting with less conflict, less cost, and more control over the outcome.

Meet Your Mediator

Krista N. Kaufmann founded Method Mediation to change the way people experience divorce. After years as a senior paralegal in complex family-law litigation at a distinguished Denver firm, she saw firsthand how the adversarial system drains families — financially and emotionally — and chose a better way.

Today she brings pragmatism, empathy, and real financial expertise to every mediation, helping clients disentangle their finances, build workable parenting plans, and craft durable settlements.
