Threshold Resources

Sherry, was terrific in assisting me through the process of dissolving my marriage. Frankly, the legal and emotional dynamics around this topic are quite opaque, and to navigate them is very difficult without a compassionate professional. I liken it to how physicians describe the symptoms climbers experience at very high altitudes, where lack of oxygen reduces people to the comprehension and intellectual capability of an adolescent. That is how it felt.
All in all, I’m more optimistic and energized about my professional and personal life than I have been in several years. Sherry played a significant part in making that a possibility. She was level headed, calm, and offered reasonable options as compromises that my former spouse and I would not have been able to reach on any timeline.

Sherry mediated my divorce settlement simply and inexpensively. She was compelling in clearly showing both of us what the likely costs were for each path we might choose, and impressed me with the range of options she produced. In short, I highly recommend Sherry.
My ex and I came to her because seven years after our divorce we disagreed over the marriage settlement agreement a previous mediator had written. Key sections of the MSA were unenforceable; our lawyers concurred. In the first meeting Sherry heard us out, and came up with a range of options we could pursue, with approximate costs, risks, and timelines for each. Over a period of over a year we slowly converged on the simplest solution she had originally proposed –it took us a lot longer to realize we could have saved a lot of time just following her recommendations!
We came to an equitable solution, and now are totally free to move on.
Having had a mediator before, who I suspected was biased, it was a pleasure working with Sherry. She seemed to me to be completely neutral, which made this process much easier to go through.

Sherry served my divorce needs effectively (first as a mediator and later as a judge) as it meandered toward a seven year resolution. She is fair and circumspect.

My husband and I employed Sherry Cassedy of Threshold Resources to serve as our mediator for our divorce mediation. We spent at least 8 sessions with her. What a waste of our time. She has a great reputation in the county and I do believe she really knows the divorce law. However, as a mediator, she serves as a mere scribe. She doesn’t nudge, she doesn’t cajole, she doesn’t even effectively frame the dispute. You would save a lot of money by simply negotiating directly with your spouse without paying her $ 450+ per hour. We were forced to change mediators when Sherry had a family emergency. Thank goodness. I found she intervened in very inappropriate ways in our conversations — when I questioned my husband during a discussion of Marital Standard of Living — she intervened immediately and told me «You’ll just have to have fewer pedicures». Are you kidding me? Is that how she plays her part? I would highly recommend looking elsewhere, regardless of her reputation in the county.
