About
Mediation not litigation not only saves you time and money, but allows you to create your own compromised agreement rather than taking a chance on what a court might order or decide. Any issue or case in an area of law can be resolved amicably and cheaply with Mediation.I formed CCMA SOLUTIONS, LLC (Consultation, Collaboration, Mediation & Arbitration) and mainly focus on Alternative Dispute Resolutions as a Certified Mediator. My 33 years of practice as a lawyer and 12 years as a Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge, along with my Mediation Certification from Northwestern University, give me a unique ability to resolve a multitude of cases fairly and efficiently without having to waste time and money litigating them in court. Although many of my cases are Divorce and Paternity, I have also Mediated a multitude of topics including: Contract disputes, Landlord/Tenant leases, Probate disputes, Real Estate issues, Accidents and Personal Injury cases, Partnerships and Corporate disputes, Customer Complaints, Money Judgments and Human Resource issues are just a few of the areas I have successfully settled through mediation. Mediation works well to settle any type of civil litigation. I have resolved claims that have not yet been filed, cases that are pending and post-judgment motions.When you Mediate with CCMA I help you resolve your disputes faster and cheaper, and with input from you, your clients, customers, employees and others involved in the dispute, rather than pursuing time consuming and expensive litigation with little or no input into the outcome of your dispute. I really enjoy resolving all types of conflicts and disputes. I look forward to helping others reach a peaceful resolution of their case or dispute that results in a written agreement adopted by all parties. Whether the case has been filed, it's a grievance or a complaint, I can resolve the issues of conflict before you spend the time and money in court and risk having a judgment filed against you, your company or your clients.RESOLVE IT TODAY...CALL CCMA!!!!CCMA SOLUTIONS, LLCwww.CCMAsolution.com[email protected]Cell 262-424-8004(1988-1998) I was an Assistant District Attorney for Waukesha County District Attorneys office: I handled all types of cases from traffic to homicide, misdemeanor and felony cases, Numerous motions, pleas, court trials and jury trials.(1999-2001) I worked as an Administrative Law Judge for the Wisconsin Division of Hearings & Appeals in the Probation and Parole Unit.

My spouse and I are glad to have her to discuss about our divorce. There was no mess & fight, and Linda made our divorce papers in one day! (Actually in 7 hours!) What we needed to is to make copies and submit them to the court. Done! I had heard "a divorce is too long & miserable...." but with her, it never happened! During the discussion, she was very neutral and listened to both of us carefully and gave us reasonable advices. I definitely recommend het. You wouldn't get nervous in front of her, rather she would make you to talk your opinion comfortably.
Divorce is painful. There's no two ways about it. But utilizing Linda instead of hiring two attorneys was a great decision. My ex and I both had pre-conceived ideas of what we wanted our marriage settlement agreement to look like and Linda was a patient teacher, enlightening us multiple times we may not be expecting reasonable outcomes. We were surprised by the complexity of our case. Even our presiding judge commented on how complex our case was and thanked us for having it so neatly prepared and easy to read and understand. He commented on how thorough our documentation and agreement was. Linda was an indispensable asset to us due to her unique expertise and experience, offering us solutions and perspectives we would not have considered. She was even able to break down confusion into simple terms, easier to understand. Especially helpful was her teaching us how the law and court could affect us in the future in ways we could not have possibly conceived. Perhaps her most valuable quality was the ability to bring 2 people with 2 very different ideas, together in the middle, to compromise. At first we had no idea how far from reality our expectations were, and she enabled us to both get grounded with an amicable resolution we could both agree on. It meant we both had to adjust our expectations and once we did we ended up with something we could both live with for our future.
Linda is wonderful to work with! She brings a tremendous amount of value to the table with her experience and ensures a fair & reasonable approach from both sides. She is able to remain impartial, understand both sides of negotiations and aid both parties in protection as well, resulting in an amicable resolution. She can infuse levity into difficult circumstances. A huge money saver as well!! I'm so glad we hired Linda instead of 2 attorneys!
Judge Van De Water is an effective and assertive diplomat who uses finesse and decorum to get the job done. She is a good read of people's character and therefore knows what style to use in order to attain solutions that are acceptable to both parties. Without Judge Van De Water's expertise, I am certain my former spouse and I would have continued to go around in circles trying to figure out how to disentangle our lives from each other. I have the utmost respect for Judge Van De Water and highly recommend her services/expertise to anyone who needs mediation. A satisfied client, Karen
I had inquired with Attorney Linda about legal separation and she answered my questions.
Linda was very helpful throughout our divorce process. I had to talk to her a few times. Was emailed back a few times within the same day. Made me feel very comfortable during a difficult time. Highly recommend!
After being a small claims battle for over a year we finally decided to try mediation with Linda. The other side was being difficult so we decided to hire Linda as our lawyer instead of mediation. I am so glad we did because she was able to settle out of court. They ended up dropping the case without us having to pay anything! Her fees were beyond reasonable and she was great to deal with. Hopefully we never are in this situation again but if needed we have her number on speed dial! I couldn't recommend her more!
Judge Linda Van De Water is extremely knowledgeable on a variety of legal matters. She explains everything well so that someone without a legal background can have a full understanding. I highly recommend her!
At the beginning of my divorce mediation, Judge Linda took the time to get to know me and the specific details of my situation. I appreciate the fact she listened!! She was prepared and reviewed all the details. What I appreciate the most is fact that she is strait forward, direct, and to the point. I would recommend mediation with Judge Linda!
Thank you judge Linda! I was trapped in a very highly emotional divorce with my husband and our 2 lawyers. We were getting nowhere fast and the bills were getting higher and higher everytime we me with lawyers! Finally my husband found Judge Linda at CCMA Solutions and suggested we give mediation a try. I was very skeptical and didn't want to pay someone else to do the same thing. I chatted with her once to see what the process was and decided it made sense. We also decided to go alone and skip the double billing of attorneys. I still can't believe we got it all resolved. She helped us complete all of the paperwork and agree on all of our issues. Sure we had some heated discussion, but Linda kept us on point and was able to keep things civil somehow. I find it hard to believe we could use mediation, but it made sense and was a lot less crazy than all of us arguing with lawyers back and forth. I saved a lot of money by not going to court and I have an agreement I can live with. I don't think its crazy anymore.

Perhaps her most valuable quality was the ability to bring 2 people with 2 very different ideas, together in the middle, to compromise. At first we had no idea how far from reality our expectations were, and she enabled us to both get grounded with an amicable resolution we could both agree on. It meant we both had to adjust our expectations and once we did we ended up with something we could both live with for our future.
Linda is wonderful to work with! She brings a tremendous amount of value to the table with her experience and ensures a fair & reasonable approach from both sides. She is able to remain impartial, understand both sides of negotiations and aid both parties in protection as well, resulting in an amicable resolution. She can infuse levity into difficult circumstances. A huge money saver as well!! I'm so glad we hired Linda instead of 2 attorneys!
Judge Van De Water is an effective and assertive diplomat who uses finesse and decorum to get the job done. She is a good read of people's character and therefore knows what style to use in order to attain solutions that are acceptable to both parties. Without Judge Van De Water's expertise, I am certain my former spouse and I would have continued to go around in circles trying to figure out how to disentangle our lives from each other. I have the utmost respect for Judge Van De Water and highly recommend her services/expertise to anyone who needs mediation. A satisfied client, Karen
I had inquired with Attorney Linda about legal separation and she answered my questions.
Linda was very helpful throughout our divorce process. I had to talk to her a few times. Was emailed back a few times within the same day. Made me feel very comfortable during a difficult time. Highly recommend!
After being a small claims battle for over a year we finally decided to try mediation with Linda. The other side was being difficult so we decided to hire Linda as our lawyer instead of mediation. I am so glad we did because she was able to settle out of court. They ended up dropping the case without us having to pay anything! Her fees were beyond reasonable and she was great to deal with. Hopefully we never are in this situation again but if needed we have her number on speed dial! I couldn't recommend her more!
Judge Linda Van De Water is extremely knowledgeable on a variety of legal matters. She explains everything well so that someone without a legal background can have a full understanding. I highly recommend her!
At the beginning of my divorce mediation, Judge Linda took the time to get to know me and the specific details of my situation. I appreciate the fact she listened!! She was prepared and reviewed all the details. What I appreciate the most is fact that she is strait forward, direct, and to the point. I would recommend mediation with Judge Linda!
Thank you judge Linda! I was trapped in a very highly emotional divorce with my husband and our 2 lawyers. We were getting nowhere fast and the bills were getting higher and higher everytime we me with lawyers! Finally my husband found Judge Linda at CCMA Solutions and suggested we give mediation a try. I was very skeptical and didn't want to pay someone else to do the same thing. I chatted with her once to see what the process was and decided it made sense. We also decided to go alone and skip the double billing of attorneys. I still can't believe we got it all resolved. She helped us complete all of the paperwork and agree on all of our issues. Sure we had some heated discussion, but Linda kept us on point and was able to keep things civil somehow. I find it hard to believe we could use mediation, but it made sense and was a lot less crazy than all of us arguing with lawyers back and forth. I saved a lot of money by not going to court and I have an agreement I can live with. I don't think its crazy anymore.
My spouse and I are glad to have her to discuss about our divorce. There was no mess & fight, and Linda made our divorce papers in one day! (Actually in 7 hours!) What we needed to is to make copies and submit them to the court. Done! I had heard "a divorce is too long & miserable...." but with her, it never happened! During the discussion, she was very neutral and listened to both of us carefully and gave us reasonable advices. I definitely recommend het. You wouldn't get nervous in front of her, rather she would make you to talk your opinion comfortably.
Divorce is painful. There's no two ways about it. But utilizing Linda instead of hiring two attorneys was a great decision. My ex and I both had pre-conceived ideas of what we wanted our marriage settlement agreement to look like and Linda was a patient teacher, enlightening us multiple times we may not be expecting reasonable outcomes. We were surprised by the complexity of our case. Even our presiding judge commented on how complex our case was and thanked us for having it so neatly prepared and easy to read and understand. He commented on how thorough our documentation and agreement was. Linda was an indispensable asset to us due to her unique expertise and experience, offering us solutions and perspectives we would not have considered.

Especially helpful was her teaching us how the law and court could affect us in the future in ways we could not have possibly conceived. Perhaps her most valuable quality was the ability to bring 2 people with 2 very different ideas, together in the middle, to compromise. At first we had no idea how far from reality our expectations were, and she enabled us to both get grounded with an amicable resolution we could both agree on. It meant we both had to adjust our expectations and once we did we ended up with something we could both live with for our future.
Linda is wonderful to work with! She brings a tremendous amount of value to the table with her experience and ensures a fair & reasonable approach from both sides. She is able to remain impartial, understand both sides of negotiations and aid both parties in protection as well, resulting in an amicable resolution. She can infuse levity into difficult circumstances. A huge money saver as well!! I'm so glad we hired Linda instead of 2 attorneys!
Judge Van De Water is an effective and assertive diplomat who uses finesse and decorum to get the job done. She is a good read of people's character and therefore knows what style to use in order to attain solutions that are acceptable to both parties. Without Judge Van De Water's expertise, I am certain my former spouse and I would have continued to go around in circles trying to figure out how to disentangle our lives from each other. I have the utmost respect for Judge Van De Water and highly recommend her services/expertise to anyone who needs mediation. A satisfied client, Karen
I had inquired with Attorney Linda about legal separation and she answered my questions.
Linda was very helpful throughout our divorce process. I had to talk to her a few times. Was emailed back a few times within the same day. Made me feel very comfortable during a difficult time. Highly recommend!
After being a small claims battle for over a year we finally decided to try mediation with Linda. The other side was being difficult so we decided to hire Linda as our lawyer instead of mediation. I am so glad we did because she was able to settle out of court. They ended up dropping the case without us having to pay anything! Her fees were beyond reasonable and she was great to deal with. Hopefully we never are in this situation again but if needed we have her number on speed dial! I couldn't recommend her more!
Judge Linda Van De Water is extremely knowledgeable on a variety of legal matters. She explains everything well so that someone without a legal background can have a full understanding. I highly recommend her!
At the beginning of my divorce mediation, Judge Linda took the time to get to know me and the specific details of my situation. I appreciate the fact she listened!! She was prepared and reviewed all the details. What I appreciate the most is fact that she is strait forward, direct, and to the point. I would recommend mediation with Judge Linda!
Thank you judge Linda! I was trapped in a very highly emotional divorce with my husband and our 2 lawyers. We were getting nowhere fast and the bills were getting higher and higher everytime we me with lawyers! Finally my husband found Judge Linda at CCMA Solutions and suggested we give mediation a try. I was very skeptical and didn't want to pay someone else to do the same thing. I chatted with her once to see what the process was and decided it made sense. We also decided to go alone and skip the double billing of attorneys. I still can't believe we got it all resolved. She helped us complete all of the paperwork and agree on all of our issues. Sure we had some heated discussion, but Linda kept us on point and was able to keep things civil somehow. I find it hard to believe we could use mediation, but it made sense and was a lot less crazy than all of us arguing with lawyers back and forth. I saved a lot of money by not going to court and I have an agreement I can live with. I don't think its crazy anymore.
My spouse and I are glad to have her to discuss about our divorce. There was no mess & fight, and Linda made our divorce papers in one day! (Actually in 7 hours!) What we needed to is to make copies and submit them to the court. Done! I had heard "a divorce is too long & miserable...." but with her, it never happened! During the discussion, she was very neutral and listened to both of us carefully and gave us reasonable advices. I definitely recommend het. You wouldn't get nervous in front of her, rather she would make you to talk your opinion comfortably.
Divorce is painful. There's no two ways about it. But utilizing Linda instead of hiring two attorneys was a great decision. My ex and I both had pre-conceived ideas of what we wanted our marriage settlement agreement to look like and Linda was a patient teacher, enlightening us multiple times we may not be expecting reasonable outcomes. We were surprised by the complexity of our case. Even our presiding judge commented on how complex our case was and thanked us for having it so neatly prepared and easy to read and understand. He commented on how thorough our documentation and agreement was.
