MEDIATION/ARBITRATION: While I love the practice of law, I see how litigation causes havoc in the lives of people involved in a lawsuit as well as major disruption in any organization named in a lawsuit. Even the winners in litigation are sometimes unhappy with the time and expense involved with a lawsuit, much less the losers in the case. Back in 2006, after 20 years of representing mostly defendants, I wondered whether there was a better way to resolve disputes. I can tell you now--there is--alternative dispute resolution (ADR) which includes arbitration and mediation. I have moved my practice to focus exclusively on ADR and I truly enjoy what I do. That in turn, means I do an excellent job for the people and attorneys who hire me. With respect to arbitrations, I have arbitrated million dollar claims and can offer quick turn-around and resolute attention to the dispute.. In mediation, I have turned seemingly intractable parties around, brought them to the table and found a solution that everyone can live with. I would be pleased to bring my calm demeanor, professionalism and the wisdom I have gained through hundreds of mediations to your dispute. I have mediated real estate, employment, intellectual property, licensing, leasing and commercial disputes and am proud to boast that I mediated the first mortgage foreclosure cases in Madison County and St. Louis County pursuant to the mediation programs put in place to combat the foreclosure crisis.
