Representative Cases |

During 13 years as a
professional mediator, I have handled multi-million dollar matters
involving wrongful termination of high tech executives, breach of IP
licensing agreements, residential construction defect matters, real
estate matters, a variety of personal injury and professional
negligence claims and complex business transactions. |

Philosophy |
|
Facilitative, Evaluative
My goal is to assist the parties reach successful resolution of the
matter in dispute using those tools that will most successfully aid
the process. I find it most effective to focus on "interests" rather
than a "rights" based analysis. I avoid a "predictive" approach as it
tends to focus the parties on a particular outcome rather than to work
towards a workable resolution. Engaging the principals in the process
is absolutely necessary to the process. |
