Logan Jacobson Mackensen is a Certified General Civil and Domestic Relations Mediator and a court-approved mediator in Oakland, Macomb, Ingham, Washtenaw, Genesee, Livingston, and Monroe Counties. She offers a better path forward — one built on dialogue, not litigation.
Divorce mediation is a voluntary, confidential process in which a neutral, trained mediator helps separating spouses reach agreements on the issues in their divorce — including property division, spousal support, child custody, parenting time, and child support. Unlike a judge, the mediator does not make decisions for the parties; rather, Logan facilitates productive conversations that allow both parties to craft solutions that work for their unique family.
What sets Logan apart is that she is both a licensed family law attorney and a certified mediator. This dual qualification means she brings deep legal knowledge to the mediation table — she understands what a court would likely decide, which helps parties make informed decisions. She is also a volunteer mediator at the Oakland Mediation Center and is on the Circuit Court roster of approved mediators in Oakland, Macomb, Ingham, Washtenaw, Genesee, Livingston, and Monroe Counties.
Mediation works best when both parties are willing to engage in good-faith negotiations, even if they disagree on specific terms. It is particularly effective for couples with children who need to maintain an ongoing co-parenting relationship. It is generally not appropriate in situations involving domestic violence, active substance abuse, or severe power imbalances. Logan will assess your situation honestly during a free consultation and tell you candidly whether mediation is a viable path.
