01
Every case is different
There is no single right style of mediation. I adapt the process to the people, the issues, and what is most likely to make the conversation productive.
Clear thinking for difficult disputes.
I help people understand their options, evaluate risk realistically, and make informed decisions about what comes next.
Over 10 years as a mediator and 15 years as a litigator.
A flexible, case-by-case approach
Every dispute has legal, financial, practical—and human—issues.
02
Good decisions matter
Settlement is the goal, but it also matters that every party and attorney leaves understanding the options, risks, and alternatives.
03
Curiosity before conclusions
Understanding what is actually preventing movement often reveals opportunities that are not obvious from the pleadings or opening positions.
