Nice To Meet You

Hi friend I’m Heather Lee Cottingham, a Domestic Relations Mediator in the State of Indiana and a dedicated peacemaker.

Navigating life’s transitions—whether it’s contemplating a divorce, preparing a will, or managing family conflict—can be overwhelming. I understand that these moments often come with a mix of emotions, uncertainty, and the desire for clarity. My mission is to create a safe, supportive space where you can explore your options and find resolution without the stress of family court.

With years of experience advocating for individuals and families, I specialize in helping those who may be facing significant life changes. Whether you’re looking to navigate custody arrangements, divide resources after a loss, or simply want to ensure your wishes are honored in a will, I am here to guide you every step of the way. In Indiana, I can assist with preparing court documents, providing you with the expertise needed to move forward confidently.

My passion for this work stems from personal experiences and a deep empathy for those in challenging situations. I was profoundly affected by my uncle's passing without a will; it highlighted the importance of feeling valued and protected. I want you to know that your needs matter, and I’m here to help you feel safe and supported during these pivotal moments.

Additionally, I offer services for those in other states, where I facilitate constructive conversations to help you reach shared conclusions. I also believe in the power of proactive planning—consider gifting a certificate for my services to newlyweds, so they can establish their will together as they start their journey.

Whether you’re facing a breakup and need guidance through the paperwork or want to set up agreements that provide legal protections for domestic partners or roommates, I’m committed to helping you find peace and security. Together, let’s work towards a future that honors your needs and aspirations.

Thank you for considering me to be part of your journey. I look forward to supporting you.
