In the middle of difficulty, lies opportunity.
- Albert Einstein
Mediation provides an opportunity for parties in a dispute to meet in a confidential setting, discuss their differences, and potentially come to a voluntary resolution that is satisfactory for all. Although not mandatory for all civil actions in Florida, most non-criminal court cases are referred to mediation prior to trial in an attempt to settle the matter before occupying a busy court docket. Apollo Mediation Group provides Florida residents a full-service dispute resolution alternative to drawn-out trials and the high cost of engaging attorneys. Our experienced mediators work patiently and collaboratively to help settle disputes.
At Apollo Mediation Group, we have A Commitment to Resolution.™
Mediators are certified by the Florida Supreme Court, and each one must successfully meet pre-requisite conditions, complete required training, and observe or participate in sanctioned mediations prior to receiving certification. Mediators must also fulfill ongoing training requirements in the form of Continuing Mediator Education (CME) credits.
A cost-effective and timely solution for your dispute.

Testimonials
“I gained so much from listening to JB -- in his person as well as his skill in mediation. I have a new horizon to go for as I move into this Elder Law field to be a mediator myself. I'll keep JB in my mind as the model to strive for at all times. Can't thank him enough. I hope I can effectively assimilate all that he has shared. It is truly my targeted path - being that "Intellectually Honest Person" in all my work and life's undertakings. Thank you for that phrase and your real-time example.”
— Nathan Estrada, Elder Law College
Joseph Bensmihen is a positive role model and a leader in our field....I consider Joseph Bensmihen to be one of the few colleagues I can turn to for advice and input. His knowledge of social programs, health care law and advocacy for aging and disabled individuals is beyond compare. He has recently written a book about the importance of advocacy which all care managers should read.
— Sonja W. Kobrin, MPS, President, V.I.P. Care Management
Joseph’s reputation was stellar, but I did not expect the results that his management produced. His hands-on approach and inspirational leadership led to employee performance resulting in unprecedented growth. Joseph’s pragmatic style, coupled with optimism, inspired clients, caregivers, referral sources and employees alike. Joseph’s knowledge and experience as a social worker and business owner are vast; his energy and optimism unsurpassed. Even the most complex home health scenario is resolved once Joseph is involved. There simply is no situation that is daunting to him; his craft and skill are fine-honed and admirable.
— Keren Wheeler, Evergreen Private Care
JB Bensmihen shares his life with the reader in a straightforward, engaging way. His book is a personal reflection, but also a guide for being thoughtful, thinking and persevering, while focusing on achievement.
— Richard M. Joel, President, Yeshiva University
You are an incredible person and a pleasure to be with. Then you did three excellent events. At each you were energetic, eloquent, on point, and inspiring. So many people came up to me after hearing and meeting you, telling me how deep an impression you made....Thank you for sharing yourself so generously, and for you efforts to help people help themselves in every area of life.
— Michael Whitman, The Adath
It was a pleasure working with JB yesterday at my mediation. I appreciate your assistance with this matter and bringing it to a close. You made the process easy and cordial. You may not get thanked enough, but I wanted you to know those of us not versed in the legal system do appreciate your efforts on our behalf. Thank you!
