Christy graduated cum laude from the City University of New York School of Law and is licensed to practice law in both New York and Florida. She began mediating in 2009 in the Queens County court system and the New York State Division of Human Rights’ Equal Employment Opportunity Division. In 2011, she became a certified county court mediator in Florida and has since become a certified circuit civil mediator in Florida.

In 2018, Christy founded a mediation firm called E-Mediation Services, which conducts mediations through virtual conferencing. She also conducts in-person mediations at CPLS, PA in Orlando and the Jax Mediation Center in Jacksonville. Prior to attending law school, Christy obtained her undergraduate degree from Boston University (from which she also graduated with honors). She worked in television broadcasting and had the honor of working for exciting companies like NBC Olympics, ABC Sports/ESPN, and some local news stations in New York City and Boston.

In her spare time, Christy enjoys figure skating, traveling, and reading. 

Working with Christy Foley gives you a clear advantage: you get an extremely conscientious, ethical, and experienced mediator whose primary goal is to help disputants. She diligently listens to everyone and works hard to help parties communicate effectively with each other. She is also innovative: she started conducting mediations through virtual conferencing (called e-mediations) in 2018 to make mediation appearances easier on all lawyers and parties involved. Christy is experienced in handling a wide range of small business, breach of contract, employment, discrimination, debt collection, HOA, foreclosure, intellectual property (including copyright, trademark, and trade secret), libel/defamation, internet, sports, and entertainment law issues. During a mediation, Christy tailors her style to the parties involved. She is trained in facilitative and transformative mediation approaches and uses each, as necessary, to help disputants.

Christy serves as Chair of Florida’s Mediator Ethics Advisory Committee ("MEAC") and Secretary of the Florida Bar's Alternative Dispute Resolution Section. She also regularly volunteers as a mediator at the Orange County, Florida courthouse. Plus, she has given presentations on mediation ethics and techniques throughout Florida, including multiple presentations at Florida’s Annual Dispute Resolution Conference (“DRC”), and has hosted multiple nationwide webinars on e-mediation. In total, Ms. Foley has presented more than 20 seminars on mediation ethics and e-mediation since 2017
