Tobey Oxholm
In his “retirement” from a career of more than four decades that saw him receive many local, state, and national awards for exemplary public service (most recently, the Mighty Oak Award presented in September 2024 by Outreach – Center for Community Services in Scranton), Tobey has turned his talents to helping people avoid court and come together to settle their disputes.
​​
Because of his unique background and the variety of approaches he uses to dispute resolution that are not available in court proceedings, he is credited with being a “creative” mediator whose empathy and “out-of-the-box” ideas have helped find solutions that his clients did not think were possible.
​
And when a final agreement eludes the parties, he has decades of experience as a neutral arbitrator, providing just resolutions quickly and inexpensively.
​​
Tobey has provided training programs in mediation to the Community Associations Institute, to a community summit hosted by then Representative (now Senator) Rosemary Brown, and to the Bar Associations of Pennsylvania and Lackawanna, Monroe, Philadelphia, Pike, and Wayne counties.

About the Logo
​​The logo for Just Resolutions is a combination of images.​​
It begins with "Ω" – the Greek letter "omega." Omega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet and the international symbol meaning "the end" (as in the phrase "the alpha and omega").
When positioned above a line, the omega forms an "=" as its base, representing equality and balance.
The two images combine into the Zodiak symbol for "Libra," the Scales, which is the symbol of justice.
Here are a few things that Tobey's clients have said about him:
