Travis Alan Van Winkle

Travis understands the emotional burdens faced by his clients. Travis has watched his clients face the emotional highs and lows often experienced by people dealing with family law matters and/or financial difficulties. He has also seen how mediation can lessen the emotion toll of litigation. Travis decided to become a mediator with the hope of helping people face their legal issues in a way that affords them more control and a greater sense of satisfaction with the outcome of their legal matter. Travis also enjoys spending time away from his work and volunteer efforts with his wife and two children. They enjoy traveling, camping, hiking, gardening, scouting, deep sea fishing and drag racing.
