the future - Epi-LASIK, which is a safer laser vision correction procedure because

REASONABLE SOLUTIONS & PEACE OF MIND
Rebecca Olesen at THE GUIDANCE OFFICE, LLC emphasizes that mediation
allows separating and divorcing couples to find the best solutions for their
futures, children, finances, business & life. Rebecca is a neutral, non-attorney
mediator who helps people in conflict make practical, informed decisions and
reach reasonable solutions.
Rebecca assists couples in: creating the right agreement for their situation;
completing appropriate paperwork, and navigating the court process. Rebecca
states that mediation promotes communication & cooperation, allowing you
to decide what’s best for you & your family. It also benefits those involved by
reducing conflict. Mediation is less costly and takes less time than contested
divorce - so you can move ahead with your life sooner and with less emotional
damage. All cases include document review by Attorney Richard O’Neil to ensure
enforceability. Rebecca also provides estate planning, wills, child support
reviews, probate assistance, Justice of the Peace services and LGBT needs. All

PROMOTION
For the past 30 years, a combined 200 years of experience and over 1,000 realworld cases, Steve Taback and his team at SANDLER TRAINING/TEM are well
equipped and able to help your company generate more business in shorter
periods of time. It’s a proven fact that people buy emotionally and justify their
decisions intellectually. Another known fact is that people buy for their reasons,
not a salesperson’s. Unfortunately, most salespeople approach sales calls with
intellectual information and logical reasons they believe should justify their
prospects’ decision to buy.
With the above information in mind, TEM provides training and coaching that
combines Beliefs, Behaviors and Tactics using a sales and management process
that is proven to be effective, transferable and multipliable. Producers across a
myriad of markets and industries have successfully applied this methodology –
taking their businesses and practices to new heights and levels not previously
achieved. TEM’s staff has both the knowledge and track record to help today’s
growing companies rise to the forefront and excel in their marketplace.

for cataract patients and makes cataract surgery more precise, predictable, &
Middletown, Westbrook
reproducible. The goal of cataract surgery has always been to provide the patient

(860)347-7466

aids Drs. Luskind, Shriver, Mulukutla & Mascarenhas in customizing the procedure to the highly specific
