One Mediation

Profile
Ms. Keaton is a practicing attorney in the State of Georgia who serves as a mediator and arbitrator of disputes (including hearing officer work in grievance
hearings and appeals), conducts school and workplace investigations (e.g., sexual harassment complaints), and provides other neutral services.

Ms. Keaton mediates various kinds of disputes. In addition to her expertise in Labor & Employment matters, Ms. Keaton also mediates separations and
divorces. Married with three children and a former school teacher, Ms. Keaton provides separating parents with mediation support that keeps children's
interests at the forefront of the resolution in how families move forward after a break-up. Parents who want to minimize the impact of their separation
appreciate the attention paid to non-legal aspects of separation and divorce.

Ms. Keaton's legal practice has focused on Labor & Employment matters for nearly a decade. She graduated from Davidson College and earned her M.Ed.
from Columbia University. After teaching school, Ms. Keaton worked for the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law and the North Carolina Legal Aid
as a Martin Luther King Fellow. After earning her law degree at Wake Forest University, Ms. Keaton began her career as an attorney in Atlanta, Georgia in
2001. Her practice predominantly involves civil rights (discrimination, harassment, retaliation), constitutional (First Amendment, privacy, Due Process,
Equal Protection), and related tort claims, with an emphasis on employment and labor matters. Her litigation experience, having worked on both sides
of the fence, has served her well with respect to her ADR work.

Ms. Keaton also is a registered Mediator who is paneled with multiple courts within the State of Georgia. Ms. Keaton also frequently makes presentations to
organizations and conducts employee trainings on a variety of topics.
