One thing that sets me apart from some other mediators is that I’ve been counsel for individuals and businesses in mediations for more than twenty years, in complex and simple cases, and emotionally tough and purely monetary cases. I’ve seen many different styles of mediators, and dealt with mediators in different ways to try to help my clients most effectively.
I’ve learned from the mediations that were successful, and I’ve also learned what doesn’t work in mediations. I’ve appreciated the mediators who were tenacious, patient, creative – and who understood the strategies I was using and the pressures I was facing as party counsel. I’ve experienced the frustrations of working with mediators who weren’t fully engaged. You want your dispute resolved, and I want to use my experience to make your mediation successful.
