As a chartered mediator, I assist clients wanting to separate or divorce by providing options including the divorce application and filing with the courts. Carlene Stabile, a Nationally Chartered Mediator, is dedicated to simplifying the separation and divorce process for individuals, striving to reduce stress, costs and inefficiencies. Her mission is to facilitate the creation of separation agree
ments, court orders, and divorce applications by expertly handling the division of matrimonial assets, calculating child and spousal support, and crafting tailored parenting plans that suit each family's unique dynamics. Mediation offers the parties a unique opportunity to resolve a dispute in a less formal and far more comfortable fashion than the use of the traditional court process. As a mediator, Carlene encourages participants to truly listen to one another, to connect and be strong working through their issues. With a robust finance background, Carlene adeptly navigates critical valuation issues concerning properties, businesses, pensions (both defined benefit and defined contribution), as well as a range of investments including stock portfolios, options and retirement savings. She is well-versed in debt management, mortgages, credit restructuring, and the intricate implications of taxation both in the present and future scenarios. Having personally experienced the detrimental effects of the adversarial legal system on families and financial well-being, Carlene is committed to helping clients achieve resolutions that pave the way for a new chapter in their lives. As an accomplished educator at the university level in finance, mediation, and negotiation, Carlene brings a balanced and equitable approach to conflict resolution. Committed to continuous growth, she actively enhances her skills through workshops and advanced courses. Beyond her professional pursuits, Carlene upholds a strong sense of community and altruism, volunteering as a dog handler for the Search and Rescue Dog Association of Alberta. Her impressive list of designations and memberships, including the Fellowship of the Canadian Securities Institute, Chartered Financial Planner, Certified Investment Manager, MBA from the University of Alberta, Chartered Mediator and memberships within ADRIA, and ADRIC, further underscore her expertise and dedication to her craft.
