After more than three decades in private practice as a commercial litigation and insurance coverage attorney - trying cases, arguing motions, drafting contracts and opinion letters, settling cases, providing legal and practical advice to clients, and otherwise serving as a bar association leader and managing partner of an AmLaw 500 law firm - in 2017 I left my law practice behind to devote 100% of my time to helping attorneys and parties resolve lawsuits and pre-suit disputes via Mediation or Arbitration. My ADR practice is as diverse as was my legal caseload, including handling insurance coverage, employment, business disputes, E&O claims, ADA, cyber/ransomware, tort, long tail environmental and many other types of pre-suit and litigated matters. As I would tell you if asked: “I absolutely love what I do! I would be honored to serve as your Mediator or Arbitrator.”
As a mediator I help attorneys and parties simplify and resolve Commercial, Insurance and Civil Litigation by finding SOLUTIONS that bring RESOLUTION, CLOSURE and CERTAINTY so that the Parties can get on with their businesses and lives unencumbered by the uncertainties, risks and expense of litigation. Flexible in my approach, I understand the personal/emotional, business, insurance and coverage issues that can be key components in resolving litigation. I am a quick study with the ability to simplify disputes and to not let parties give up during the negotiation process. Mediation Day is a very important day for the Parties and I approach it as such — in every single matter.
I am also available to serve as an arbitrator, chair or umpire for insurance and commercial disputes. I serve on the Consumer and Commercial arbitration panels of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) and on AAA’s Commercial Mediation panel.
Wondering what I am like? Take a listen to my podcasts or watch one of my YouTube videos - you can find them by my name or under the name “ROADS TO Resolution ~ Closure ~ Certainty”. I look forward to meeting you and working with you and your clients or attorneys to help get cases settled!
