    Caucus mediations in divorce and family law matters

    in Legal

    Mediation is a popular alternative dispute resolution method in divorce or family law matters. Many opt to participate in mediation seeking a settlement outside of court. Many picture being alone in a room with the mediator and the other party. In that room, they envision a scenario where both parties and the mediators talk, devise solutions, and resolve the case. Sometimes, having both parties in the same room is not a good idea. Arguing and bickering might occur if the parties are in the same room. The arguing and bickering might inflame the situation so that a settlement does not occur. Learn how the caucus approach to mediation may be beneficial. This podcast is based on an article on our Family Law Headquarters blog titled: What is the caucus approach to mediation? Contact our Tulsa, Oklahoma divorce lawyers to learn more at 855-805-0595.

    Ford's Garage Franchise Opportunity Meets with Franchise Interviews

    in Entrepreneur

    Ford's Garage is a restaurant franchise that takes inspiration from 1920s garages, boasting licensing rights from Ford Motor Company. It has garnered a reputation as a popular dining spot nationwide, attracting patrons with its nostalgic ambiance and authentic American cuisine. The interior design recreates a classic 1920s service station, complete with vintage vehicles, fixtures, and gas pumps. One of its distinctive features is a suspended Model T or Model A car above the central bar, surrounded by Prohibition-era elements such as brick walls, richly colored woods, and a hand-hammered copper bar top. The staff dons mechanic shirts, napkins are made from blue shop towels, restroom sinks are crafted from tires, and the faucets resemble fuel pump nozzles. This restaurant concept is not only unique but also rapidly expanding across the country, making it a topic of lively discussion. We are meeting with Dave Ragosa, VP of Franchising and Development for Ford's Garage.
    In Part Two, we play a clip from our popular Great Quotes in Franchising podcast.

    Close Up Radio Spotlights Kimberley Ward of Life By Design Solutions

    in Marketing

    Jamestown, TN - Kimberley Ward is the owner of Life By Design Solutions
    Personal tragedies are blessings even when we don’t know it at the time.
    While money makes the world go round, and we all have bills to pay, we can never recover time lost. “However, when we prioritize, we can make an unlimited amount of money. I found a passion for digital marketing that I didn’t know existed.”
    With a certificate in Neuro Linguistic programming (NLP) Kimberley helps entrepreneurs to get unstuck by helping them recognize and adjust negative belief systems. “The biggest challenge I see, and it all goes back to this, is people pleasing,” shares Kimberley. “I now have a zero tolerance policy for business leaders and entrepreneurs who make decisions based on what others think. Once you break those chains, you really can create your life by design.”
    Kimberley teaches her clients far more than digital marketing. She shows them how to bravely and proudly put forth their authentic selves without fear of what others might think.
    Kimberley also teaches clients how to compartmentalize.
    Author of three books, Kimberley is excited for the release of Life By Design: How to Create Leverage, Lifestyle and Legacy on April 19. This 3rd book builds on her previous two, Life By Design: How to Create that Business You’ve Always Wanted and Life By Design: How to Create Balance. All are available on Amazon. Kimberley also maintains an active blog for entrepreneurs and small businesses on her website.
