Resolving disputes in an uncertain and rapidly changing legal landscape.
MEDIATING WITH INTEGRITY
“As your mediator, counsel and the parties can expect honesty and straight talk. I learned how to mediate by participating in sessions with poor mediators – who just relayed offers and counter-offers, or attempted to manipulate the parties into a deal, or were not truly engaged with the dispute and did not understand the actual goals of the parties. You won’t get that with me. I treat each mediation as unique, not just an exhausting exercise in ‘splitting the difference.’ Everyone gets respect and we all participate in the process with integrity.”
