We are Rachel and Jason Borntreger, Florida Supreme Court Certified mediators and longtime family law attorneys. We've spent decades inside courtrooms, and we know exactly what litigation takes from families. Time. Money. Sleep. Emotional bandwidth. Sometimes relationships that never recover.
​
Evergreen Mediations exists because most families deserve a better option than a prolonged legal fight. Mediation doesn’t make hard situations easy, but it does keep them from becoming harder and more expensive than they need to be.
​
We’re not career mediators who have never tried a case. We’re litigators who chose mediation because we’ve seen what actually works. We help people resolve divorce and family law disputes with structure, realism, and respect for what’s at stake. There are usually a few reasonable paths forward. Our job is to help you find them and decide which one you can live with.
If conflict brought you here,
resolution is still possible.
The Evergreen Mediators
Evergreen Mediations is led by Rachel and Jason Borntreger.
​
Rachel is decisive, quick, and deeply experienced in complex financial and parenting matters. She sees patterns fast, asks direct questions, and keeps discussions moving when they would otherwise stall. ​Jason is patient, methodical, and steady under pressure. He slows things down when emotions take over and brings structure to conversations that feel stuck or circular.
​
Different styles. Same goal: workable agreements that hold up in real life.
​
Remote Mediation Services
We offer remote-only family law mediation throughout Florida. That's a deliberate choice.
Remote mediation allows for flexible scheduling, privacy, and a calmer environment for difficult conversations. It also makes mediation more accessible for families dealing with safety concerns, emotional strain, or logistical challenges.
​
Mediations are scheduled in half-day (4 hour) or full-day (8 hour) blocks. Shorter sessions work well for focused issues or cooperative cases. Full-day mediations are better suited for complex finances, parenting plans, or cases where everything needs to be addressed at once.
​
Attorneys and self-represented parties are welcome. You choose the mediator, the length of the session, and the date.
Is Mediation Right for You?
Mediation works best when people want resolution, even if they don’t agree on much else yet.
It is not a place to punish the other side, relitigate the past, or perform for an audience. It is a private, confidential process focused on decisions that will shape your future.
Most family law cases resolve in mediation because it gives people something court rarely does: time to think, space to talk, and control over the outcome.
Take the Next Step
If you’re considering mediation, start with learning how the process works and what to expect. If you’re ready to move forward, we’ll help you schedule in a way that fits your case and your life.

You don’t have to make this harder than it already is.
