Contact Cristy L Mazhar

I started Mazhar Mediation & Arbitration Services after a long corporate career driving projects, leading teams, and executing complex quality assurance programs involving cross-functional teams' negotiation. I loved my job but never felt fulfilled.

(ADR) Alternative Dispute Resolution and advocacy allow me to combine my love of negotiating during complex projects involving groups speaking different languages (in my case: developers, software engineers, and analysts in the IT industry), resolving disagreements, and fostering relationships.

I have a sincere desire to devote my life to helping people resolve conflicts with a more efficient, confidential, and lower-stress process than the traditional court system using communication and negotiation using the ADR process. With a bit of a twist! We are all here to accomplish one common goal: to get your voice heard. My goal is to make all sessions as stress-free as possible, considering the situation you're already facing. We customize all sessions according to your specific needs.

10+ Years in (ADR) Alternative Dispute Resolution in many forms. IT Lead Analyst - Performed testing and led small and enterprise-level projects that required communication between multiple teams, departments & skill levels to achieve target dates and goals. Provider Relations - Leason between Medicaid Clients & Medicaid Providers to resolve disputes & complaints submitted on behalf of the patient for the state of Texas.
